The “VIP” who is moving around is President Obama, and his arrival at JFK International went about how you’d imagine:
It’s windy at JFK & @POTUS movement caused a total flight stop. Nothing in or out, some diverting. Thanks, Obama. pic.twitter.com/nUmq8aIJ5D

And they’re not alone:
Refueling at LGA to fly back to JFK where we couldn't land b4 because the president's plane gets to land first. TL;DR Thanks Obama!
