Among the global leaders featured in this issue, aviation stands out as one of the most defining forces of our time. At the heart of it lies The New Terminal One at JFK, set to open in 2026, and its strongest partner—Korean Air.

In an exclusive conversation with David Pacy, Korean Air’s Executive Vice President & Chief of In-flight Services and Lounges, we explore not only the scale of this collaboration, but also the human touch behind the service.

“You need to have an authentic story that you believe in. When you have that, you create a human impact that motivates people to tune in to what you have to say and what you believe.” – David Pacy

Through his words, we understand that world-class service is not simply about efficiency—it is about creating memories that stay with passengers long after the journey ends. Korean Air, with its deep commitment to excellence, continues to shape the passenger experience at the very center of the new global hub at JFK.

This is not just about building a terminal.

It is about building a future of travel that feels personal, memorable, and human.
