All terminals in JFK are owned by the port authority with the exception of terminal 4. Delta has a good relationship with the port authority so that would not present any real problem.

Jet Blue has purchased Delta. The Delta guys are getting stapled to the bottom of the list. It's true because you just read it on the net.

Then Delta should not have any problems having a new terminal built for them.

Any ideas where to put it, haha? Last I checked there wasn't a glut of available real estate at that craphole.

There are better places to get a few Airbii that have CFMs....unless they're going for the whole kit'n'kaboodle!

Nu
Is it Airbusses or Airbii? I'm always confused on that... After all, it's 1 bus and 2 busses so why should it be 1 Airbus and 2 Airbii? Airbii sounds weird to me?

Well, that's Latin whereas Airbus is an English word (or maybe French? ). Besides, it would be alumnii based on that theory and it's alumni... I'm just curious, that's all.

They wont have any real problems. They have the Mayor and Governer behind the NYC expansion. The big increase in flights out of LGA will allow them to shift some JFK flying to LGA to help build a new terminal. The design is complete and looks great. The big question is timing and how the port authority will finance everything. Terminals are joint projects since the Port authority retains ownership. Once the new terminal is done Delta plans a major expansion in JFK. Timeline however to complete a new terminal is 4 to 5 years out. There is still some hope for terminal 8 and the Port authority may be putting some pressure on American. That is the first choice. The new design is plan 2.
If they go with plan 2 terminal 3 will be demolished and that area will become a big pad and alley area. No new terminal will be built there. Terminal 4 will be extended almost out to T-way A. Terminal 2 would then be rebuilt after 4 is complete.
