Hello, I am going to fly a flight from KACY to EGLL on a Delta Airlines 737-900. The flight nonstop is to much because the plane is to heavy that it hits turbulence. So I need a good stopover airport on the northeast coast before crossing the Atlantic Ocean. Please leave good airport recommendations, thank you!

St. John’s International Airport (CYYT) might be a good choice.

Boston is good. Montréal is probably your safest bet. Quebec City is also an option.

Thank you for the recommendations!
However, if you can, I suggest stopping at Reykjavik.

Bangor (KBGR) is a good one if that’s close enough, Shannon (EINN) on the other side.
Stop over in Iceland than carrier on should have enough range if you push it
Iceland is a very good stopover airport and the 737-900 can fly long enough to go to BIKF.

BA uses Shannon for their A318s. I usually go through Newfoundland, Nuul, or Reykjavik.
Want me to dig you a grave?
Lol just kidding, I know it is capable. Just plan well.

Actually going east the 739 should have enough range for that. You will need a stop over the other way though

Yeah I have done the flight nonstop but have stopped it because the plane is so heavy that the plane hits bad turbulence.

There shouldn’t be a relation between the two things (weight and turbulence) to be honest apart from probably more turbulence at lower altitudes.

There is always Keflavik, Iceland
Thank you for everyone’s recommendations! I think that I am going to use St.Johns(CYYT) as my stopover airport.
