Taxiway Y that Frontier was on doesn’t have Runway Entrance Lights. 18L does have Takeoff Hold lights.

Yes I definitely do listen out for that sort of thing. But unfortunately at JFK they cross aircraft on a different frequency which makes it much more dangerous. And I also have a good look before crossing a runway! Why don’t US carriers seem to do that? At night time in can be very difficult to spot an aircraft on a runway - couple of lights in a sea of lights. Major accident waiting to happen.

In a different incident (see Another Runway Incursion at KDCA), the AA crew's response suggests there may be something like a company requirement for an inspection following an RTO above 80 knots - see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=InebB0sl5vQ&t=38s
