I keep seeing announcements every other year of some kind of terminal expansion at JFK so it's kind of confusing lol. I guess the Port Authority decided to consolidate several expansion projects into two main ones (north side and south side)?

And that’s a totally reasonable position from Delta.
How much do they really have to pay to play in New York?
I’m sure the LaGuardia rebuild wasn’t at the top of their list until the governor made a very public campaign to get them to match the new terminal in a unified way.
They know that despite being “under review” the LGA perimeter isnt going away in any meaningful way.
They essentially got pushed into the LGA rebuild while the paint was still wet at T4.
