JetBlue Pop Up Terminal at JFK

November 13, 2006 at 1:22 PM | 2 Comments


While JetBlue recently celebrated the completion of their Terminal 5 renovations at JFK, customers won't experiences the new and improved terminal for another couple of years:

Construction of JetBlue's 26-gate facility began in December 2005. The state-of-the-art, customer-friendly JetBlue terminal is scheduled to open in early 2009 and will enable the low-cost airline to operate up to 250 daily flights from Terminal 5 at JFK.

For now, we have to put up with taking a shuttle to a make shift "pop up" terminal. Thus, if you are connecting through JFK and your connection happens to be leaving from gates 18-24 ready yourself for a shuttle ride from the main terminal. Our experience with the pop up terminal was smooth, but we are not looking forward to standing outside waiting for a shuttle in the middle of February. Missed flights, frostbite, this thing could get ugly, but it hasn't thus far. Let us know about your JetBlue JFK pop up terminal experience in comments.

    Last week

    Was just there last week.  That announcer dude on the shuttle that says "I don't know what the weather is like outside" -- he is already getting on my nerves.

    Not bad

    I actually don't mind the pop up at all. If it was between that and the circle-shaped area (which you go thru to get to the shuttle), I'd definitely pick the former.
