Some cool facts about Stewart:
The day after the takeover, an opening ceremony was held in which New York State Governor Elliot Spitzer attended and the Port Authority flag was raised.[23] It has set aside $500 million in its ten-year capital improvement plan to expand the airport. Trans-Atlantic flights to Europe by Norwegian Air Shuttle are scheduled to begin in 2017, the first international service at the airport.[24]
A plan exists to drastically change Stewart's image over the next 20 years: major renovations such as a new terminal, a train station next to the new terminal connecting the airport to Metro North, a 2,000-foot (610 m) extension of runway 16–34, new taxiways, and a major expansion of the cargo facilities. A new control tower has been built. In the fourth quarter of 2007 Interstate 84's new Drury Lane exit, NY Route 747, and International Boulevard opened.[23]
Starting in June 2017, to support Norwegian's growth in making the airport a terminal for visitor's to New York City. Coach USA is providing bus services between the airport and Port Authority Bus Terminal, called Stewart Airport Express.[39]
