About this location
Gate 7 marks IS Duty Free's spot on Terminal 1's level 3, a few storefronts past where Chanel and Dior sit at Gates 3 and 4 on the same level. Perfume sits alongside the duty-free stock here, which puts it in more direct competition with those two fragrance counters than with Bally or Brookstone further down the row. It's the only IS Duty Free location at JFK, so there's no second branch in another terminal to weigh it against — what's on the shelf at Gate 7 is what the brand offers at this airport, full stop.
One of 3 IS Duty Free locations at John F. Kennedy International Airport (Terminal 1, Terminal 5).
