The partnership between The New Terminal One at John F. Kennedy International Airport and EVA Air has been announced, marking a collaboration for the premium airline to operate within the state-of-the-art terminal.

Currently in its construction phase, The New Terminal One is set to unveil its initial gates in 2026, developed in conjunction with the Port Authority of New York & New Jersey as part of the $19 billion overhaul of JFK Airport.

EVA Air, renowned as one of only 10 Skytrax 5-star airlines worldwide, presently conducts operations from the existing Terminal 1. Upon the inauguration of The New Terminal One, EVA Air’s operations will seamlessly transition, allowing the esteemed airline to elevate its travel experience for passengers traveling to and from New York. EVA Air presently offers daily services between New York JFK and Taipei Taoyuan International Airport utilizing Boeing 777-300ER aircraft, featuring three cabin classes: Royal Laurel Class, Premium Economy, and Economy Class.

“We are proud to partner with EVA Air, an airline that is renowned globally for its quality and service,” said Dr. Gerrard P. Bushell, President and CEO of The New Terminal One at JFK. “We look forward to working with EVA Air to elevate the experience for their valued customers traveling to the iconic city of New York. This new partnership further demonstrates the confidence that global airlines have placed in The New Terminal One.”

“We are excited to be among the airlines that will be operating out of The New Terminal One at JFK,” said Andrew Su, Executive Vice President and Head of EVA’s North America Office. “Locating our East Coast operations in this state-of-the-art facility will provide us with the ideal environment for further elevating our passengers’ experiences, from check-in and departure to arrival and baggage claim.”

EVA Air will be joining an expanding roster of distinguished international carriers committed to operating within The New Terminal One, including Air France, KLM, Etihad Airways, Korean Air, and LOT Polish Airlines. Further announcements regarding additional airlines are anticipated in the forthcoming months.

Construction progress of The New Terminal One is underway, with the $9 billion Phase A slated for inauguration in 2026, offering 14 widebody aircraft gates. Phase A will encompass over 120,000 square feet of retail, dining, and lounge facilities within a footprint of 1.7 million square feet. Upon its full completion in 2030, The New Terminal One will emerge as JFK’s largest international terminal, boasting 23 gates and exceeding 300,000 square feet of retail, dining, and lounge amenities across a total footprint of 2.4 million square feet.
