Swinging '60s Day Trip to the TWA Hotel | 7/27









Swinging '60s Day Trip to the TWA Hotel | 7/27
Step back in time with us on Sunday, July 27 for a chic, 1960s-themed escape to one of New York’s most iconic architectural gems—the TWA Hotel at JFK.
Designed by Eero Saarinen and beautifully restored as a retro-luxe destination, the TWA terminal is a love letter to the golden age of air travel—and we’ll be stepping inside for a curated experience filled with nostalgia, connection, and style.
We’ll begin with a private, guided tour of the hotel and its museum-level exhibits, which include 37 full TWA uniforms, original TWA travel posters by David Klein and large-scale TWA artifacts, as well as a preserved Lockheed Constellation “Connie” airplane. In an authentic recreation of a 1962 living room, you can try on retro fashions, admire an original Barbie Dreamhouse and enjoy the far-out furnishings.
After the tour, we’ll enjoy lunch at the Paris Café by Jean-Georges, surrounded by sweeping views of the runways and the terminal’s iconic design.
For those who want to make a full day of it, you can add on reserved rooftop pool access—so pack your swimsuit and enjoy cocktails with panoramic views of planes taking off in true Jet Age fashion.
Retro outfits are encouraged though not required.
