First-ever Innovative Wheelchairs Launch at JFK Airport’s Terminal 4

Back to Newsroom

John F. Kennedy International Airport’s Terminal 4 announced it is the first airport terminal in the nation to offer Jetweels wheelchairs – non-metallic, lightweight and ergonomic seat- equipped wheelchairs – to improve the travel experience for passengers who need wheelchair assistance. Jetweels, now available to passengers, launched through a partnership between the Terminal 4 Airlines Consortium (TFAC) – a group made up of Terminal 4 airline stakeholders, government agencies and other partners – and PAX Assist – the company that provides assistance to passengers in need of wheelchair service at T4.

T4 is a work of art. Really! You’ll find our private collection of world-class paintings, sculptures, and mobiles on display throughout the terminal.

Be Travel-Ready: Plan for a Stress-Free Trip to T4!

Due to construction at JFK, the roadways leading to Terminal 4 may be congested. We highly recommend that our guests allow themselves some extra time to reach the terminal and, whenever possible, use public transportation within the subway system through Howard Beach or LIRR at Jamaica, then use AirTrain JFK.

From there, your ride will be 10 or 15 minutes to the terminal.

Taxis and shared rides from T4 will operate from the Remote Ride App & Car Services Lot, accessible via a free shuttle bus in front of the Arrivals Hall running every 1-2 minutes. Please avoid going with anyone you have not pre-arranged a ride with.
