History - Construction of the airport began in 1942 with modest ambitions. Only 1,000 acres (4 km²) of land on the site of Idlewild golf course were earmarked for use.

The airport was formally dedicated as New York International Airport on July 31, 1948. It was re-dedicated on December 24, 1963 as John F. Kennedy International Airport, following action of the Mayor and Council of the City of New York, and a resolution of the Commissioners of the Port Authority. After the September 11, 2001 attacks, JFK was one of the first airports in the United States to be temporarily closed.

Hello, I will arrive at JFK
Hello,
I will arrive at JFK next month for a 15-day stay. Any place inside JFK airport where I can buy a prepaid mobile phone (or perhaps just a SIM Card)? Thanks.
SIM CARD
Yes you can buy a SIM card within the terminal building. I did it as I live in Bermuda and I went home to England via JFK. I purchased a $50 SIM card which lasted about two weeks as my hub was still in Bermuda.
