The new amenities will debut May 15 on top of the airport's new 512-room TWA Hotel and stay open all year long.

The 63-by-20 foot pool and the 10,000-square-foot observation deck overlook 4L/22R, one of the airport's largest runways, with views all the way to Jamaica Bay.

Inspired by the infinity edge pool at the Hotel du Cap-Eden-Roc in Cap d’Antibes, France, the swimming spot has a beach entry and underwater seating, becoming a "pool-cuzzi" in winter (heating up to 100 degrees).

The bar menu boasts aviation-themed cocktails and food options. The hotel's Sunken Lounge gives guests a front-row seat to the runway as well.
