New York will be just fine.
Obviously day and time may be a factor, but when I landed at 7PM last Thursday evening, our JFK terminal was PACKED. Busiest I've seen it since prepandemic.

Looks like the removal of Benito Cuomo's "quarantine gestapo" from the NY airports because of the lifting of his quarantine requirements has opened the NY airports back up. That is a good thing. Excelsior! 😁🤣

Agreed. The new LGA will be a powerful representation of the Delta Brand, especially if you're hopping on an A220. Sleek, Modern, Luxurious. It will be difficult for the business traveler to not think of Delta first.

Take back my previous statement. Just realized 1 in 40 Americans live in NYC. She’ll be fine

Waiting for the refugees stretched across the floor at 6AM looking for a power outlet.

Are we the First Order now? It looks like an insignia born of the dark side of the force.

You hit a bank. It is normally a ghost town. There is no real push out of there since last May. Pretty sad still. Although looks like the shake shack down by ops is finally going to open. They were cleaning it the other day.

That was nice to see. That was a big mistake.

I think they've lost a few 100k to emigration. Manhattan is still a ghost town. Just as they were finally starting to open a bit, burn loot murder has decided to go crazy again again. SMH.

Looks like several large corporations are moving to FL I can't name them as I don't know, but they are building several large, very nice, office campuses around the state. We've seen them in Tampa, St Pete, Orlando, Jacksonville and Miami. Something big is going to go there, not sure who or what. Guess we'll see when the signage goes up? I heard at least one is JP Morgan.

I don't think NYC is coming back to what is was anytime soon. Quote me on that.

When international travel returns and the city gets entertainment and tourism back, NYC will be bigger than ever. It will be harder to avoid on my bid and the Queens layover will really suck. We will never get back to Manhattan. I'm not a fan of NYC but if you have to be there I much preferred the Roosevelt and the island. 3 airlines at several layover spots, and even though the rooms were tiny and the heating and cooling sucked, it was by far the best location.
