The Inside Scoop by our Local Expert
JFK is not only one of the largest, but is also one of the busiest airports. This is fitting since it is located in one of the most action-packed cities in the world–New York. Though it is not in the heart of the city, JFK is located in Queens so you can see more than one borough and experience the outskirts of the city, while being able to easily access Manhattan. That's why the hotels in that area are so appropriate and convenient.After you've seen the sights, eaten the cuisine, and walked the city streets, you'll need to get back home. But not before you do some exploring at JFK airport first. The airport has lots to do while you await your flight home. Eat at popular restaurants, like Chili's, Au Bon Pain, and Subway, at one of the eight JFK terminals. Shops like Cartier, Clinique, Swarovski, and Fossil are all places where you can shop to take away any travel stress you may be feeling before your flight.
