The Runway Chalet Launches At The Pool Bar at TWA Hotel
The Runway Chalet at The Pool Bar – operated by Gerber Group has opened up a toasty 1960s ski lodge-themed getaway on the roof of the landmark 512-room hotel at JFK International Airport. Outside, the water in the pool-cuzzi hits 95 degrees or higher every day, and the tented, heated bar — outfitted with retro skiing gear— offers peak views of Runway 4 Left/22 Right.
The vintage fireplace is the perfect place to cozy up with cocktails après swim: the Idlewild Hot Toddy features Sailor Jerry spiced rum and hot apple cider garnished with a cinnamon stick, while The Weather Delay adds Belvedere vodka and marshmallows to the wintry mix. Fondue of both the chocolate and cheese varieties accompany a hearty bites menu.
