Gobble gobble! Easy on that throttle, pal. With the big feast just a few days from now, before you butter your biscuits, come butter the runways at your favorite bizjet airport.

The New York ARTCC is pleased to welcome back this event for another year and offer a fun and relaxed Sunday afternoon at Teterboro in anticipation of Thanksgiving. We’ll make sure your favorite FBO has turkey to go, but there's no need to burn rubber on the runways because there’s always enough for everyone!

Date & Time: November 24th, 2024, 3:00pm → 6:00pm Eastern (2000z-2300z)

Congrats Meg! Looking forward to working with you.

Still on a high from the Northeast Corridor FNO? Been on a plane and a train, but really want to use an automobile to complete the trifecta? Boy, do we have a treat for you! Join us for the Parkway Power FNO, another collaboration between the Washington, New York, and Boston Virtual ARTCCs. This special event celebrates parkways - they’re not highways or roads, but nonetheless a pinnacle of American infrastructure.

Start your journey north on the Baltimore/Washington Parkway, one of the many parkways administered by the National Park Service in the DC metro region. Make a stop at Thurgood Marshall International Airport (BWI), a regional hub for Southwest Airlines and the go-to airport for many Maryland travelers. You’ll enjoy easy access to casinos and the nightlife of the Baltimore port.

Continue north and enter the Belt Parkway, leading to the confusing ring-road surrounding John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK). Make a wrong turn and miss your terminal? Looks like you’re flying Spirit! Home to one of the busiest airports on the VATSIM network, precision is key here as you navigate the narrowly complex airspace with the help of our controllers.

Finally, you can head even further north and join the Blue Hills Parkway on your way to Boston’s Logan International Airport (BOS). One of the gateways to the world, finish your night, or set out for a trip across the Atlantic.

Similar to the Northeast Corridor, we strongly recommend spreading out your flights to avoid congestion at any one airport. Expect delays and diversions as we team up to bring you another terrific event!

Event Fields: KBWI, KJFK, KBOS
Date & Time: February 23rd, 2024, 7:00pm → 11:00pm Eastern (2359z - 0400z)

The week of July 4th in New York City includes many different activities. You can enjoy the classic parades and fireworks, or, hear me out, jam your mouth (or watch others jam theirs) full of hotdogs at the annual Nathans Hot Dog Eating Contest!

For 52 glorious years, tourists and locals have flocked to Coney Island to enjoy or even participate in this tradition. While this network hasn’t been around nearly as long, this July 4th week, instead of jamming your mouths with hot dogs, you can jam up the runways at LaGuardia (LGA), home of the NTHNS 5 departure!

Event Field: KLGA
Date & Time: July 2nd, 2024, 7:00pm → 10:00pm Eastern (2300z - 0200z)

Congratulations, Jan - so well deserved! I can't wait to work more with you and see where ZNY goes.
