FAA status

No ground stops or delay programs at JFK. The FAA has not restricted traffic into or out of the airport. (Late September is the exception every year: here is why JFK slows down during UN General Assembly week.)

Weather at the field

Clear, 21°C. Wind 24 km/h. Visibility 16.1 km. Nothing in the current weather that typically slows JFK down: rain alone rarely delays flights; low visibility, strong gusts, and thunderstorms do.

If your flight is today

  1. Check your flight's live status from the departures board (tap your flight number for gate and terminal detail).
  2. Confirm your terminal with the airline terminal lookup.
  3. Wondering whether today is unusual? how often JFK actually runs late sets it against twelve months of federal data.
  4. Driving in? Book the lot before you leave: JFK parking options and honest prices covers which lot serves your terminal, and drive-up is always the worst rate.
