Flight delays plague JFK airport after days of weather disruptions
Passengers traveling through New Yorks John F. Kennedy International Airport were met with numerous delays relating to sever weather in the area on Monday, June 26, 2023. Over 1,500 cancelations and delays have been reported by Wednesday morning.
Three U.S. airports can now boast that they have some of the best travel dining experiences in the world.
The 2024 Global Tastemakers panel of more than 180 food and travel experts revealed their 10 favorite airports for dining and drinks on Tuesday, with one bonus. Among those on the list were New York City’s John F. Kennedy International Airport, Georgia’s Hartsfield–Jackson Atlanta International Airport and California’s San Francisco International Airport.
"JFK's food selection is almost as massive as the airport itself. After hopping off a flight or before boarding, grab an iconic taste of New York at spots like The Palm Bar & Grille, located in Terminal 4, which brings New York steakhouse energy to the airport. But, like others on the list, JFK is truly an international hub, so it's easy to find global flavors, including Soy and Sake for ramen in Terminal 1 and Mi Casa Cantina and Restaurant in Terminal 4," the panel described.

The panel praised the "Southern hospitality" in some of Hartsfield–Jackson’s spots as well as San Francisco International’s "farm-to-table vibe."
The number one choice from the panel was the Jewel Changi Airport in Singapore.
"Find yourself in the midst of Singapore's best flavors literally right out the gate at the Jewel Changi Airport, named the best hotel airport for food and drinks in the 2024 Global Tastemakers Awards. With more than 100 food vendors, you're bound to find something to delight your taste buds," the panel said.

It continued, "For something warm and inviting, head straight to Kiwami, a ramen spot on Level 1 with slurp-worthy broth made with Japanese pork bones that have been simmering for more than 10 hours. Or, snag a local bite at Jumbo Seafood on Level 3 for a taste of its award-winning chili crab, then make your way to Sourbombe Artisanal Bakery on Level 2 for the perfect sweet treat before departure."
New York, Georgia and California’s airports ranked seventh, eighth and ninth respectively.
