One connected travel region.
In 2025, the Port Authority’s four commercial airports together handled 142,711,190 passengers. JFK accounted for 62,629,455, Newark Liberty for 47,000,085, and LaGuardia for 32,791,050. Those figures show why an airport plan from Bergen County benefits from a clear pickup, flight, passenger, luggage, and destination plan.
The Federal Aviation Administration describes the New York–New Jersey metro area as the nation’s most complex and congested airspace. In 2025, it reports that JFK, EWR, LGA, and Teterboro handled about 1.7 million aircraft operations and 146 million passengers. Weather or airspace constraints at one airport can affect the wider system.

How to use this page.
This is a reference page, not a live operations dashboard. The figures above use the Port Authority’s 2025 Annual Traffic Report, released April 10, 2026. Airport totals are rounded in display only, while the explanatory text keeps the reported full counts where useful.
Airport-related economic impact is stated in 2025 dollars. The Port Authority notes that its economic-impact methodology was revised beginning in 2023, so those estimates should not be compared directly with earlier reports. The FAA source is included for regional airspace context.
