Welcome to New York, The Big Apple. “Where America Greets the World". The New York Hub consists of three airports, LaGuardia, Newark Liberty and John F. Kennedy International Airports. With 3 major airports and very congested skies, averaging over 3,700 flights per day, the New York airspace is known worldwide for its difficult departures and arrivals involving tight and quick turns. All three airports were opened in the 1940’s and today Pacific Airways serves both passenger and cargo operations out of New York. Newark moves more than 31 million and LaGuardia more than 24 million passengers a year. Kennedy moves more than 1.7 million tons of cargo a year. If you like to fly passengers as well as cargo, in challenging situations, then New York is the place for you!
