STEWART AIRPORT – It’s a sign that the United Nations’ General Assembly is in session – dozens of jets belonging to heads of state around the world are parked at New York Stewart International Airport near Newburgh.

The aircrafts are brought to Stewart after dropping off the UN representatives in New York; in some cases, the officials are driven down to the UN after landing at Stewart.

The nations that park their planes during the General Assembly enjoy the lack of congestion at Stewart and the less expensive landing and parking fees.

This is the first year since the COVID-19 pandemic that the General Assembly was held in person instead of virtually.
