About JFK Airport JFK or John F. Kennedy International Airport is located in the heart of Queens only 15 miles away from Midtown Manhattan. JFK is the international gateway to the U.S. for commercial flights and freight shipments. It is the largest of New York's three major airports.
Officially opened in 1948 and once commonly known as Idlewild Airport, it was rededicated on December 24, 1963, as John F. Kennedy International Airport in honor of the assassinated president.
More than 40 million passengers passed through the airport in 2005, the latest year for which figures are reported on the Web site. The airport has two pairs of parallel runways and eight passenger terminal buildings.
Buckeye Partners L.P. supplies jet fuel to JFK through a 40-mile pipeline running from a storage facility in Linden, New Jersey, via the New York boroughs of Staten Island and Queens. The pipeline consists of two parallel 12-inch pipes buried 3 or 4 feet deep. JFK has a total fuel storage capacity of 32 million gallons. It includes 62 tanks in bulk storage as well as 50 miles of underground pipe.
Over 35,000 people are employed at the airport. JFK Airport contributes about $30.1 billion in economic activity to the New York/New Jersey metropolitan region, generating some 265,180 jobs and $11.2 billion in wages and salaries.
