Stewart SWF Airport Overview


Stewart International Airport SWF is located in Newburgh/New Windsor, New York, at the intersection of the New York State Thruway I-87 and Interstate 84. The Airport is 60 miles north of New York City and covers 2,400 acres. The Airport serves the regions of Long Island, Westchester County, Orange County, Connecticut and New Jersey. Because one of its runways is 12,000 feet in length, Stewart Airport already has room to handle the largest jumbo jets. It is only a matter of time that Stewart International will become a true alternative to Kennedy and Newark Airports. SWF also offers private helicopter services to midtown Manhattan business travelers from Stewart at competitive rates offered by JFK. Some major airlines serve the Airport with direct and connecting flights to all points of the globe.

Stewart Airport's main terminal was completely redesigned in 1998 and is equipped with facilities to accommodate persons with disabilities, as well as families with small children. The terminal has 7 jet boarding bridges, a new lobby with 38 check-in stations; food and drink, as well as newsstands are located in both the main floor and the gate area on the second floor; an ATM machine is near the baggage claim area; WiFi internet access is available throughout the terminal; rental car agencies are located on the main level. The passenger terminal is open 4:30am-1am.

Parking options are available across the street from the passenger terminal in Lot A, divided by short- and long-term parking; or the Economy Parking Lot (credit card only) next to the passenger terminal's rental car facility, while Overflow Lots C & D are off Breunig Road. The first 15 minutes are free for Lot A and Economy Lot. A new 40-space parking lot is to be added.

To get from the Airport to your destination, you can rent a car, take a taxi or limo or take the Leprechaun Bus Line providing transportation over the Newburgh-Beacon Bridge, with connections between Metro-North's Train Station in Beacon, the NYSDOT's Park & Ride Lot (on RT 17K) and Stewart International Airport.
