Despite the president landing at JFK International Airport in Jamaica, Queens, both charter and corporate flights will be grounded between 4:30 p.m. and 8:30 p.m. because it is within the 10-mile no-fly zone, News 12 Westchester reported. 

Commercial flights are still expected to arrive and depart as scheduled, News 12 Westchester said. 

Obama will be attending a $10,000-a-plate fundraiser at the Conyers Farm estate of Richard and Ellen Schapps Richman in Greenwich, Conn., Hearst Connecticut Media reported.
