| JOHN F. KENNEDY (JFK), NEW YORK 12

But its busy skies cause one of the worst on-time records in the nation, and with $30 cab rides to New York and customs delays of up to 90 minutes, JFK has been losing European and Far Eastern business to Newark Airport and the Los Angeles and Miami airports. Still, the cheapest flights to Europe, Africa and post Soviet countries leave from here, and with the greatest frequency. Питання для самоперевірки
