Upcoming Events Calendar
Typically July is pretty quiet
around the airport, however the
progress of redevelopment at JFK,
Newark and LGA are keeping many
people, and companies busy. Business
opportunities are being publicized
by the Port Authority and
Terminal developers to attract contractors
especially local minority
and MWBE enterprises.
Also in the news, both minimum
wage, and Port transportation increases
are planned. The airport
minimum wage goes to $15.60 on
September 1st for almost 40,000
workers, and the Port has plans to
add surcharges to for-hire vehicles
at the airports, and increase fares
on the AirTrain as well as tolls on
6 AIRPORT VOICE, AUGUST 2019
many bridges and tunnels. These increases
are planned once the public
meeting reviews on these maters are
fi nalized in mid-September. A combination
of both happiness on the
minimum wage yet dismay on the impending
increases left many airport
workers with mixed feelings on both
issues. The Port “ both giveth and taketh
away “ one observer said. Another
said it was better to get an increase
in base pay in any case.
August 19th begins National
Aviation Week, which is a Presidential
proclamation to those who
helped pioneer aviation in the US
and began the amazing development
of private, commercial and
aerospace industries.
