Ithaca airport to begin twice-daily flights to JFK airport

ITHACA, N.Y. — Ithaca Tompkins International Airport (ITH) plans to offer two daily flights to John F. Kennedy (JFK) International Airport in New York City via Delta Air Lines beginning Jan. 9.

Business and leisure travelers can book Delta flights on either the early morning or mid-day departure to JFK on the 75-seat CRJ-900 regional jets.

“Our community has expressed its desire for this destination for some time now, so this is fantastic news for ITH and our traveling public,” Roxan Noble, director of the Ithaca Tompkins International Airport, said in a release. “Flights will depart ITH early morning and midafternoon and you can be in Manhattan in 45 minutes via public transportation. You can get there from here with twice as many flights from JFK to Los Angeles and San Francisco than from Detroit. Plus, JFK has the most international airlines in the United States. I want to thank everyone who helped make this happen and am so thankful for our strong partnership with Delta Air Lines and other air service partners.”
