From 2026 Air Serbia on New Terminal 1 of John F. Kennedy Airport in New York
Air Serbia has become the latest international airline that has committed to operating out of New York’s world-class New Terminal One at John F. Kennedy International Airport scheduled to open its doors to customers in 2026. The New Terminal One is being constructed in partnership with the Port Authority of New York & New Jersey as part of the agency’s $19 billion redevelopment of JFK Airport.
Air Serbia now operates out of the current Terminal 1 at New York JFK, flying up to seven times a week between Belgrade and New York JFK.
