Traveling by plane is one of the safest and smoothest ways of transportation. The whole world lays at your feet and your following destination approaches incredibly fast. However, the pleasure of flying might be overshadowed sometimes by long layovers, so here are some relevant things to do at the JFK Airport if your flight gets put on hold before the next departure.
Since you have already been several hours on air, it is normal to feel hungry and thirsty. JFK is one of the largest airports in the country, gathering under its roof no less than 6 terminals with numerous and diverse bars and restaurants. Whether you go for a light snack, a healthy salad, a delicious barbeque or try something new and exotic, there are plenty of food options available. After you had enough to eat, you can always go to BRKLYN Beer Garden in Terminal 2 or at Vino Volo Wine Shop in Terminal 8 to enjoy your favorite beverage.
A long layover is not particularly entertaining but turns it around by choosing some relaxing things to do at the airport. Check out one of JFK’s 23 high-end lounges. Unlike other airports where access is granted only to business and first-class passengers, JFK lounges welcome anyone willing to pay. Purchase a single-use day pass in advance and relax, recharge, enjoy complimentary food and drink, and get ready for the next step of your journey.
If you were looking for an excuse to shop for different yet premium kinds of stuff, no one would judge. Shopping is one of the best things to do in JFK Airport as the possibilities are endless. You will not forgive yourself if you miss famous brands such as Juicy Couture or COACH, designer boutiques like Hermes, Cartier, Victoria’s Secret or Guess or the duty-free experience in Terminal 4. Don’t forget to check your watch, time flies by when you are shopping in such magnificent stores.
Flying for several hours might get you feel a little tense and messy. What better excuse do you need for hitting one of the peaceful Xpress Spas? Indulge yourself with a relaxing massage, refresh your hairstyle and enjoy a clean manicure and pedicure. Get yourself the look and the mood before boarding on the next adventure: it is one of the greatest things to do at JFK Airport.
If your layover lasts for at least 6 hours and you hear the city vibe calling your name, there are plenty of things to do near JFK Airport as well. Hit the Big Apple – New York is just around the corner. Revive yourself by walking in Central Park, go back in history by visiting some of the iconic museums, facing the darker side of Ellis Island, and glancing at the majestic Statue of Liberty. Live the American dream in style and hire our professional car service to drive you around. Remember that your time is limited and New York traffic is not the friendliest. Our chauffeurs are well trained and highly acquainted with this tangled spider web of streets, so they are your best chance to make the most of your time. Don’t stress around heavy traffic, unavailable parking space or navigating through unknown roads. Give us a call and just sit back, relax and enjoy the scenery from one of our safe, clean and comfortable vehicles. We will pick you up and get you back right on time for your next departure.
No matter the hours you have to kill, there are plenty of things to do around JFK Airport. Whether you choose to stay inside or take our classy ride outside, chase away the boredom and relax before hitting the following destination. This is a time-off you will not regret.
