About this location
Hudson sits at Gate 3 on level 3 of Terminal 1, stocking travel essentials rather than the meals sold at Arrivals Eatery or Dunkin' Express next to it. It fills the gap for chargers, neck pillows and reading material that the food counters around it don't carry. Positioned right at the gate rather than back near the checkpoint, it works as a last-minute stop before boarding rather than a shop travelers detour to earlier in the terminal.
One of 14 Hudson locations at John F. Kennedy International Airport (Terminal 1, Terminal 4, Terminal 7, Terminal 8).
