Near the airport, not at it

Jamaica is where the LIRR, subway and AirTrain meet, and one entry is JFK Cannabis at 175-01 Rockaway Boulevard. The name does not put it inside the airport: cannabis cannot go through TSA checkpoints, because federal law applies there. Our flying guide explains what happens if you try.

  • More streets: Liberty Avenue (143-10), Sutphin Boulevard (90-67, near the transit hub), Union Turnpike (248-15) and Rockaway Boulevard.
  • Licence dates: the codes in our data range from 2023 to 2026, so several stores are new. Nirvana Springs carries a 2026 code.
  • Enforcement: New York City started its Padlock to Protect operation against unlicensed smoke and cannabis shops on May 7, 2024, according to the mayor's office.

A shop with a leaf on the window and no OCM sticker is not a licensed dispensary. Use the checks in our licensed versus smoke-shop guide and the New York state page for limits.

Questions about this list

Can I buy cannabis in Jamaica, Queens and take it on a flight from JFK?

No. Airports fall under federal law, and TSA screening does not accommodate cannabis even between two legal states. Leave it at home or use it before you travel where it is legal.

Which streets have Jamaica's dispensaries?

Hillside Avenue and Jamaica Avenue hold four of the top eight, and others are on Liberty Avenue, Sutphin Boulevard, Rockaway Boulevard and Union Turnpike.
