Are you an aviation lover who longs for the days of mid-century luxury travel? If so, you absolutely must visit the TWA Hotel located right next to New York City’s John F. Kennedy International Airport.
This hotel, which is a popular choice for travelers flying into or out of New York’s most important international airport, is set in the former TWA Flight Center that once operated as the once-massive airline’s terminal at the New York flight hub.
Now, the hotel has been remodeled and refurbished into a chic hotel that keeps alive the luxury essence of travel in the 1960s, many years after the airline’s heyday and two decades after it went out of business
The bar, check-in counter, and lobby have all been maintained in the style of the terminal during the 1960s. Sweeping windows give unmatched views of the active terminals at JFK Airport, giving aviation geeks a second-to-none look at the airport and its operations.
Hotel staff even wear uniforms inspired by the airplane cabin crews’ former outfits.
In short, if you are heading in or out of John F. Kennedy and you’re looking for a way to please the inner aviation lover that most of us have, the TWA Hotel is an obligatory must-visit.
