Investments
Delta’s $1.5 billion expansion project at New York-JFK broke ground in December 2021. As of January 2023, Delta has officially moved its operations out of Terminal 2 and consolidated all operations to Terminal 4, with 10 new gates now open on Concourse A.
The updated check-in and baggage drop area utilizes the latest technology to improve efficiency during busy travel times and includes the following enhancements:
- Delta’s signature digital backwall with up-to-date gate information.
- Self-service check-in kiosks.
- Enhanced bag drop locations.
Following this latest expansion, all 28 gates located in Concourse B can accommodate a range of aircraft types and now exclusively serve Delta and its partners’ customers. This program also expanded the main security checkpoint, the lower-level transfer security checkpoint and domestic baggage claim, added new restrooms and made improvements to the check-in lobby.
Airport Experience
Debuted in 2021 at the airline’s Detroit and Atlanta hubs, Delta Digital ID provides customers with a seamless, hands-free way to navigate the airport. This industry-leading technology expanded to JFK in December 2023. Delta Digital ID uses biometric facial matching to eliminate the need for an agent-facilitated document check, allowing customers to move through bag drop and security checkpoints with more convenience and ease.

JFK’s two Delta Sky Clubs have capacity for over 800 guests simultaneously. The latest Club, which opened in summer 2023, spans 14,000 square feet and seats more than 250 guests.
