AA and BA at JFK

American Airlines and British Airways have announced plans to co-locate operations at John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) Terminal 8 beginning 1 December.

Jointly, the terminal investments and co-location will offer a more seamless customer experience for the oneworld partnership.  For business travellers the concept of getting on the earliest flight will be much easier.  Even at this time the airlines have six codeshares daily.  BA is presently in Terminal 7.

Tom Stevens, British Airways’ Director of Brand and Customer Experience said: “New York holds a special place in our heart as one of our most well-loved and important destinations. Our move to the redeveloped and expanded Terminal 8 will bring a range of benefits for our customers, including a better transfer experience, enabling them to travel to more than 30 destinations across the US, Caribbean and Latin America with American Airlines. British Airways will remain in Terminal 7 until December 1 and we have continued to invest in the experience for our customers, including our check-in area, concessions and lounges.”
