AIRLINES: New York hotel will be jet age tribute

A hotel under construction at the long-closed TWA Flight Center at New York’s Kennedy Airport will conjure the glamour of air travel in 1962, when architect Eero Saarinen’s jet-age landmark first opened. The $265 million hotel will have a rooftop pool and a museum stocked with artifacts, including uniforms lent by former TWA flight attendants. The TWA terminal closed in 2001, when TWA was acquired by American Airlines. The hotel is scheduled to open in early 2019, but a scale model opened last month at One World Trade Center in lower Manhattan.
