Seven Scheduled Airlines Moved Over From LaGuardia

Seven scheduled airlines moved over from LaGuardia in 1949 to Idlewild International Airport on its opening day. Until the end of 1957, the airlines at Idlewild lived under one roof, the so-called “Temporary Terminal”, a luxury Quonset hut.

Of Experiences

As airline and passenger numbers increased, so did the challenges they faced, so in 1953, the Station Managers formed “IAMCO”, Idlewild Airport Management Council. Their president from 1953-1958 was a legendary figure, the burly and gentlemanly Ronald Burrage of BOAC (British Airways). He remained as “Dean of the Airport” until his retirement in 1971 in England. After his death his ashes were scattered over JFK from a Port Authority helicopter. That was Ronny’s wish.

History

The Kennedy Airport Airlines Management Council is an association comprised of Station Managers of all scheduled airlines operating into and out of J. F. Kennedy International Airport at Jamaica, New York.

Mission Statement

The KAAMCO Cargo Operations Committee was formed in the early 1950’s to benefit the air cargo industry in and around Kennedy Airport. Since then the organization has firmly established itself as a working Committee, KAAMCO provides a common platform for cargo industry participants to pursue solutions and creative ideas.
