I did not know the existence of this
All these years I have been landing and taking off in JFK and never realized that Terminal 5 (which was for TWA airlines that went bankrupt after the crash in 1996 and was bought by American Airlines) is a TWA themed hotel. There are two hotel buildings, the whole decor is that of a throwback to the yesteryears. There are old vintage cars, the checking in counters are for the hotel!, there is a swimming pool overlooking the runway and even an airplane there that has been converted to a bar! Definitely check it out next time you are in JFK!
