Operational impact
The 2026 U.S. Open will take place from June 15-21 at Shinnecock Hills Golf Club in Southampton, NY. Tickets are available with various pricing options, including weekly passes at $1,800, four-day tickets at $1,800, and single-day options starting at $25 for practice days and $250 for competition days. The Billie Jean King National Tennis Center in Queens will host World Cup festivities from June 17-28, featuring a fan zone where attendees can watch select matches. The tournament is expected to attract a significant number of private jets, similar to the Ryder Cup, with heightened security measures in place following recent events in Midtown, NYC.
What to watch
Teterboro (KTEB), Westchester (KHPN) and Republic (KFRG) parking, reposition timing and crew logistics around finals.
Primary risk
Late-summer NY metro demand plus finals weekend can exhaust Teterboro parking and force repositioning.
