- John F. Kennedy International Airport - more commonly known as simply JFK - is one of three primary airports serving the New York City metropolitan area. The airport handled over 60 million passengers in 2019, making it one of the busiest airports by passenger volume in the United States and the busiest international air gateway into North America.
While you may be familiar with the concourses, gates, and even views of the runways, we wanted to know… What is it like behind the scenes, and… Who are the people that help keep JFK running?
In this episode, we go behind the scenes and give you an exclusive look at the inner workings of JFK airport. This is Airport Uncovered: JFK.

We hoped you liked our first original documentary! Please support by sharing it with your friends and family!
I love it
Nice. We want more 🙂
I actually have been im jfk when i was about 2 yrs old. We were flying to doha with Qatar airways. Honestly dont remember anything about the experience
Bitte länger...
I love these types of videos. Thank you for these
Kennedy Steve!!! That man is a legend for those of us who listen to ATC recordings.
I was wondering how i knew him and then i saw this and it clicked lol
@@lucasconkling6960 The only reason I knew is because I watched an interview with him awhile back. Cool to see the man behind the voice!
Oh absolutely love him
@@drumjedi5301 his voice is unmistakable
Just wondering how he talks to tug drivers more...
Back then Kennedy Steve told pilots to talk to the Ramp, now he IS the Ramp! It came full circle!
Ah Kennedy Steve! The guy who kept pilots on the straight and narrow moving their planes around the airport and he did it with humor and professionalism. Yes, he's perfect for his new job.
Let's see a video on the new airport in Istanbul. It looks like a palace.
Good to see Kennedy Steve's still at the airport even though he's no longer in the tower.
Investing in today is priceless because tomorrow isn't promised, trading Bitcoins,gold, silver and crypto secure a better Tomorrow.
@Nicholas Michael I understand the fact that tomorrow isn't promised to anyone, but investing today is a hard thing to do because I have no idea of how and where to invest in?
@Whight Jane “here in Australia” EU flag profile pic lol
@Nicholas Michael but sometimes i nationwide beep boop jump soda can
@@khanwoods4515 If I can't hold it in my hands, currency based on nothing is exactly that--NOTHING.
Kennedy Steve! So glad to hear he is still working at JFK in a new role.
This is my airport. I come here everyday to work. My terminal is 4. Working here for 14yrs. 😁 Love it. Great to see Kennedy Steve. He is a legend.
6:10 even the professionals use flight radar 24 haha
Woah lol
I saw this when I saw someone use it later in the video like the other comment on this comment
Do you reckon they use the free / regular version or do they get some deal with the Devs, like do they get the Pro version or something like that?
Kennedy Steve! His live ATC clips are the stuff of legend! To be that funny yet still the consummate professional is a true talent. Great to see him running part of the airport.
They were never live
Kennedy Steve!! Finally straightening out that ramp!
If I hear Kennedy Steve's voice my laptop's cursor automatically goes to the "like" button
Excellent show and great seeing Kennedy Steve
I would like to see additional series on the other JFK terminals and especially the baggage handling system. Great job, love this channel.
With "Kennedy Steve" working terminal One I can only assume that it is the best run terminal at JFK. A little side note is that the night in 1963 that the VOR at JFK was changed from it's older IDL to JFK, I was just changing the radio to that station as the turnover occurred. After hearing the Morse code IDL for that VOR it was kind of confusing that the next Morse code came as JFK.
Kennedy Steve is certainly one of a kind. He is one of the few people in my bucket list that I would like to meet someday! This was a very nice video, I am sure there is/was enough material that the video could have lasted an hour and a half, with Kennedy Steve alone!
Kennedy Steve, return of the legend xD
This channel (both Long Haul and Simple Flying in general) is one of the most underrated, underappreciated, most hard working channels in all of TH-cam. Keep working, you brilliant people. You make magic every time you release something new.
Could you guys please do more Airports Uncovered like HEATHROW, LAX, Frankfurt, Schiphol, Montreal. Loved the video, keep up the good work👍🏻😊
That's a great idea..
Oh....... and I LOVE the old TWA Terminal, it's an absolute design classic and should be preserved forever as it's beautiful.
Kennedy Steve... The man. The legend.
Hey that's Kennedy Steve! So glad to learn that he is still working at the airport after his mandatory retirement from his ATC position.
He is a legend!
Tango Yankee!
Kennedy Steve as an ATC manager used to complain bitterly about Terminal 1 ramp control back when he worked for the FAA.
A beautiful project team Simple Flying
Would appreciate if y'all could film Mumbai Airport, the busiest single runway airport in the world that had more than 1000 daily departures pre COVID
I would love to see that also.
I thought London-Gatwick was the busiest single runway airport in the world?
Mumbai has 2 runways -_-
@@Boeing-ER-jy9vq dude they are not used simultaneously as they intersect
@@togafly. still counts as a two runway airport
Kennedy Steve, if you read this: You’re a true legend, Sir!
Who doesn't love Kennedy Steve? He's an absolute Legend in the airline industry and we've heard him so many times on ATC channels making pilots lives a little bit more light hearted whilst still doing his job to an immensely high standard.
I don't think anyone knows this fantastic airport better than this man.🇬🇧🇺🇸✌✌
Loved this documentary, more of these long hauls 😍please and thank you. Also your voice is so satisfying and calming 😌
The legend himself is in this video. Fantastic.
There is no one like Kennedy Steve. Mere slight comparisons.
Loved this short documentary I would love to see more !
Amazing documentary! Please do a video on Heathrow and Manchester airport
Kennedy Steve is the man!! Love his audio of him in the tower
I hate those aircraft comparisons . like ur just comparing them on the basis of their range and model type and units sold bruh! This is my type of content and you will win all hearts if this series continues
great to see Kennedy Steve
I love the pool at the TWA hotel. It's great for plane spotting
This is really awesome documentary, please work with other airports like LAX, SFO, ATL, MIA, ORD, LHR, DXB, SIN etc...
Nice job. There's so much to the JFK complex. You managed to pull out stories that were less common. Excellent.
Being going to JFK since the 80s to plane spot and for a short time collecting airline schedules.
Damn this a must watch thing
Wonderful series! Please more episodes on JFK and than maybe later LAX, SFO, CDG, LDH, FRA, MAD, INC and so on...
I don’t want to see a single dislike on this video. This is just so good!
Been there a few times would have live to have a longer video thou. Would love to see other airports such as YYZ etc
My man Potts pan Kennedy Steven should have his own TH-cam channel a legend at Jfk
Nice! Good to see Kennedy Steve still working at JFK after retiring from Kennedy Tower. Missed his voice.
Give us some more content on the other terminals at JFK, please have a pt 2 and possibly a pt 3
Great video! Thank you!
I love this content! Please make some more! Do LAX or ATL next! 💛
I love this. Can we please more of these airport uncovered videos. ❤❤❤ Make them 45 mins at least.
Kennedy Steve would be proud of your first doco.
Good to see Kennedy Steve still at JFK and actually working with Ramp lol
I love all the Kennedy Steve comments, he's awesome!
Please do a documentary series on all the iconic airports like LAX, ORD and Hartfield Jackson
My wife and I landed at JFK last October, and we walked 3.5 miles from where we landed to our next gate, and never left the teminal we were in. It was exhausting!
You should profile SFO in the next video!! It’s a US airport that has a lot to offer and is almost completely renovated.
I started my love of all things aviation when I began working at JFK in 1986. Left in 89 and spent 31 years working between FLL and MIA. Once an AVGeek always an AvGeek. Now my minnie me is starting his AVGeek career at ATL as an aviation meteorologists. Oh also totally an Kennedy Steve fan girl….always looking for DELTA TUG 2!
12:22 twa hotel is a ✈️ enthusiast heaven!🥺🥺🥺 modern plane and plane from the 60s!
It was amazing to have been a part of this project!
Could you do Heathrow (LHR) next?
it exists already
Kennedy Steve!!!! An absolute legend!
Absolutely amazing! We love these videos. Thank you for all your informative and exciting content. Would you please create more video like these for the following airports:
(no particular order)
San Francisco SFO
Denver - DEN
Chicago - ORD
London - LHR
Los Angeles - LAX
Singapore - SIN
Honolulu -HNL
Frankfurt - FRA
Madrid - MAD
Tokyo - NRT
great video! more about the other terminals would be awesome
Great work! 🤩
Exquisite coverage/ insight and overall content sharing done of one of the most well known Airports across the entire World
I was jfk based when I upgraded to Captain... Excellent documentary.
I was expecting a 1h long documentary but this one was very interesting
Looking forward to learn about other airports around the world
I want to know how atc/tower handles departures/approaches (clearances) and preparations during emergencies in the tower in JFK
Just flew through JFK in October 2020. Had not been there since the 1970's. Wow what a difference, and loved the air train, too bad they are dragging their feet on one for LGA. Recently retired as an aircraft mechanic from a major US airline but never worked at JFK. Have some friends that did and they said it's quite the experience. FLY NAVY!!!
Kennedy Steve - Legend!...........
This was an awesome video. Though I'm mildly surprised they didn't cover the TWA hotel pool area with the awesome plane spotting views!
Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport is very historical and would make a good video
Oh my god it’s Kennedy Steve!! We’ve missed you buddy 😢
I live in NYC and ive been to JFK. I am a aviation nerd and thank you for teaching me about my home airport
Please consider doing a report on how to create traffic demand for an underutilized airport.
Also how runways locations are determined.
I knew Kennedy Steve couldn't just retire from yelling at Delta Tugs! So glad to see that he's still there to keep them in line, but hopefully in a higher paying and less stressful position.
"Kennedy Steve", great to see him still work at JFK. Although in a different position.
Ive worked in JFK since 2003
Please keep these coming
A documentary on Kennedy Steve, please.
I’m very fond of JFK Airport… The smart phone really made JFK easier to navigate now.
Would love to see KBOS and KSEA! Great video on a wonderful airport.
Do SFO next.
Love the section about The ARK!
What a glow up by Kennedy Steve!
Id love to see an episode on the jfk airline catering centres on the ramp and how the airline food is made.
I would like to see docs on Atlanta-Hartsfield and how it became the world's busiest airport and my hometown airport Philadelphia International and how few from humble beginnings to being a major international hub.
Loved this video. Would love to see more!
Thanks, I have been in la Guardia, never at JFK ,congratulacions beatiful documentary.
Finally, the Rise of the Regional Jets segment is no longer the longest LHbSF video.
Cheers
This is top quality stuff
Isn't it? These guys are amazing
Your best video, yet! You some work into this one.
very Nice good information
Amazing documentary, I hope there are many more to come! I would have loved to see something about JFK’s terminal 4 which is the only privately operated terminal in the US, owned by the Schiphol Group. And speaking of Schiphol….😏
Very cool documentary and well done. Tons of docs about all new modern Asian airports. Nice to see one about a renowned American airport. Look forward to more!
Great to see that Kennedy Steve is still at Kennedy at some capacity
Awesome job! Would love to see Washington Dulles or Washington National, my home airports! Hopefully MWAA cooperates with you :)
Wish you guys do a documentary of the Port Authority Police that protects JFK and all it facilities.
What a great documentary ❤
These people are amazing that work at our airports. I'm going to thank them personally next time I visit JFK.
Second successful career for Kennedy Steve!
Outstanding !!!. On part 2 of JFK, please highlight the past glories of the Worldport terminal of PanAm and the new T4 from the old IAB
WHY isn't it mentioned, among ALL that chatter, that the Saarinen TWA terminal is now anchoring a HOTEL? The amazing central shell houses the lobby/restaurants/bars, and rooms are in custom-built semicircular buildings contoured around the site between the Saarinen building the the Jet Blue terminal. I've stayed there awaiting a 10:30 am Emirates A380 flight to Dubai and onward to Mauritius. Rooms are tiny, but with a runway-view room, aviation enthusiasts can get a view of the Emirates and Singapore Airlines gates -- and they both route the A380 into JFK. (SQ's routes the 380 to/from Frankfurt and another A350 Long-Range aircraft goes nonstop to Singapore over the North Pole in a 19 hour ride.) Lodging at The TWA Hotel an exciting way to spend the night in New York, either prior to or after an odd-hours flight. Just an update from a glaring omission in this video, thanks.
This was really interesting. JFK is such a big place it was cool to see behind the scenes. Thanks!
