According to Delta Airlines, this $175 million project adds 11 new gates and 75,000 square feet to Terminal 4’s Concourse B and continues Delta’s $1.2 billion investment to enhance and expand the terminal.
The latest expansion at JFK will enable Delta to relocate approximately 80% of its domestic “Delta Connection” flights from Terminals 2 through 4 in order to provide “a better experience” stated Gail Grimmett, a Delta senior vice president, at the ribbon cutting celebration.
