Hi,
I am flying Virgin into JFK from England and then flying Jetblue from JFK to Ft Lauderdale in January. Can anyone advise how long I should allow for immigration and customs? ie: if flight from UK arrives 12.20pm, can I get a jetblue flight at 2.55pm , or should I go for the 3.40pm flight to be safe?
Many thanks :)

Thank you for your help

Take Airtrain on track 1 to Jamaica Station and then either LIRR or E subway to Penn Station. Exit to 7th Ave., hotel is across the street.
My cousin is arriving at the JFK International Airport Terminal 1. I need to know the correct address for direction, so that I can put in my GPS. Can you please send me the correct address that will take me to Terminal 1 of JFK International Airport, NY?
Thank you so much in advance...

Hi, I´m flying from JFK to Bogotá Colombia in AIRES airline, in which terminal operates that line ?
I am flying into Terminal 7 by Cathay Pacific and leaving in 2 hours to Columbus Ohio by AA 4146 from Terminal 8. After going through the security check at arrival, to where should I put my baggage please? Is there any AMERICAN AIRLINES counter in Terminal 7 for handling baggage? Thanks a lot.
After immigration/customs at T7 look for Cathay Pacific connecting flight counter where you can turn over the bags. They will transfer them onto your next AA flight.
You can also take the bags with you and have AA check them in at their terminal 8.
Hi there.. I´m a Portuguese graduated in Tourism and i would like to know how can i apply to work in JFK; Many thanks!
I am flying into Terminal 8 by American from SFO and leaving shortly thereafter to Helsinki by Finnair from the same terminal. Will I have to leave the boarding area and go through the security check again or can I go straight to the gate? (The connection time is tight, trying to plan ahead.) Thanks a lot!
No, you don't have to - both airlines share the same building. Just look on the monitors which gate Finnair departs from and head for the gate.

As long as you arrive domestic and depart international from the same terminal, have your Finnair flight boarding pass and you do not leave the gate area (outside security), you are good to go.
what is the best way to get from Terminal 4 off an SAA flight to the Jetblue Terminal 5? How long does it take?
Thanks for the reply.
I am arriving from South Africa on SAA at T4 at 08:40 on 11 September;and then on to Boston on JetBlue at 12:00.Do I need to collect my luggage or can it be transferred automatically from plane to plane?
You will need to collect your luggage and clear customs/immigration on arrival at JFK. After you depart customs take your luggage to the SAA connecting flights counter if they give you luggage tags for the Jet Blue flight to Boston or take luggage with you to T5 and check-in at Jet Blue.
Take Airtrain on the third floor of T4, any train on track 1 one stop from T4 to T5, takes less than one minute.
It's an emergency things i cant contact Mr.Pattama Khumvong he will depart at terminal 1 in Korean Airline (KE 0082)14.00 pm. please let him call me(Jang From Thailand) back immedieatly ...Thank You
Hi,
Can you confirm if there are any restrictions for someone just transiting between Terminal 4 and Terminal 1 at JFK. The passenger is arriving from Santo Domingo with JetBlue for a connection onto Moscow with Aeroflot and the appropriate Russian visa in place.
They have 4 hrs 10 mins connection outbound and 7 hours on their return. This should be plenty of time for transit purpose only?
No restrictions in that case(as long as the person has US visa to transit) - let the person take Airtrain on the third floor of T4, on track 2 and get off second stop - T1.

Hi, we're leaving from JFK Terminal 3 on Thursday early evening for a Delta Flight to Rome. It's scheduled to depart 5:35 PM; we plan on getting there by 2:15. A few questions for now: Can we bring our own food on the plan to eat instead of purchasing one of their dinners? Is curbside check-in an option for an international flight?
Also, sorry for this simple question but we haven't flown in many, many years - since the days of tickets. We have our e-ticket receipts from the travel agency. Do we print our own boarding passes first when we we get to the terminal at one of the kiosks, or do we wait on the line to do that? Aside from printing the boarding pass, and checking in the luggage, is there another step that needs to be done? Thanks alot.
You can bring your own food(only solid) on the plane. The problem is only the liquids that are prohibited by TSA.
You can do curb-side check-in for any Delta flight at terminals 2 and 3.
You have an option to either print your boarding passes from the kiosks(all you need is the record locator or Delta confirmation number, which should be on your e-ticket receipts) or go to any Delta kiosk assist counter and have an agent print your boarding passes.
In case you print your boarding passes from the kiosk(and don't do curb-side check-in) , don't forget to mention how many pieces of luggage you will be check-in and after that locate the baggage drop counter where you can drop off the luggage.

I am coming from SEA and connecting through JFK on SAA/Delta codeshare flight to JNB. My question is does delta and SAA share a terminal? Do I have to collect my luggage and recheck it for the SAA flight? The flights are all on one ticket? Thanks in advance!
Delta from Seattle will land you most likely at T2 or T3 and SAA is at T4.
Double check with Delta at SEA(at the time of check-in your bags) if the bags will be checked through.
In case it will be checked through then you don't have to pick it up at JFK.

hi
please ; i m from morocco ; and i m in fly the 5 septembre to usa as new immigrant ; i dont know what after getting new york ;and know that my final destination is richmond va ; can you show the best way to get richmond virginia
thank you very much.
Hi Nabil,you need a flight from N.Y to Richmond VA,what carrier? then you check to see what terminal.
I am arriving tomorrow at Terminal 3 and my international flight leaves from terminal 4. How do I transfer between the 2 terminals? Is there a way to avoid security since I have already been through it and will be flying with the same airline? Please advice me what I need to do....Thanks for your help!
I assume your second flight is also with Delta. Then you need to find gate 11 at Terminal 3 and take Delta courtesy bus which will bring you to gate 23 at Terminal 4. You don't have to clear security in this case since the shuttle runs behind it(on the ramp side).
Hi. I have a friend who moved here on 3/3/2010 with his family. They are immigrants but the immigrantion office told him that they can't find his immigration profile. By the way they do have his family memebers profiles who moved here with him.So they told my friend to go to the JFK airport to get this problem solved and we like to know do we have to go to the airport to get this problem solved?
Dear Sir/Madame
If I want to book a limo at the JFK airport, where can I book one?

My friend is arriving Monday night with twins. Are there porters at Terminal 3 Arrivals at the luggage pick up area. If so, how much is a porter per luggage - we need help to carry her bags to the taxi stand. Much appreciate any help. Thank you.
You can find porters at T3-international arrivals much easier than T3-domestic.
They charge usually $1-$2 per bag.

Thanks so much for getting back. She is arriving at Term. 3 International so it would be perfect. I was wondering what determined the luggage difference between $1 and $2. Is it the size of the number of luggage? Also, do they escort the passengers all the way to the taxi stand. The twins are 2yrs old so we'll have our hands full :) Thank you again for your prompt response.
I was not sure how much the skycaps at T3 are charging( I have seen "$1 per bag" sign on their carts somewhere, can't remember at which terminal) that is why I mentioned the range $1-$2. They will escort her all the way to the taxi stand(which is not far away at all).

If my flight is landing into JFK airport on the morning of Sunday 5 Sep, should I change my flight to a day later, given Hurricane Earl's path ?
You should be fine, the hurricane will be long gone to the northeast by tonight and most of the heavier effects will be far to the east of JFK. As always, check with your airline for flight status.
Hi,
how to go from T1(international) to T2(Delta) without leaving a building ?
Thank you
There is no internal link between T1 and T2. You have to go outside, on the street and walk from T1 to T2.
My husband receievd a credit voucher from Delta, is there anyway i can use the voucher instead of him?
This is a question for Delta. It has probably been issued to his Delta Skymiles # and will most likely need to be redeemed through an online booking. Read the info that came with the voucher for details and restrictions.
In a previous posts I saw that airlines should have an agreement for luggage. I come from NM to NY with Delta and than Air France...Should I take my luggage for the second flight .
Thank you in advance!
Double check that with Delta in NM but they are partners in SkyTeam, so Delta should check your bags all the way through.

Dear Sir/Madame
I'm flying to New York on 11/9/2010. I suppose there are always cabs ready to take you to the heart of the city. But are there also immediately limousines available? Or do you have to book them?
Thanks in advance!
With kind regards
Guillaume de Saint-Cyr
Not really. You have to either book them in advance(and their drivers will wait for you as per your arrangement) or you can book them as you arrive and wait 20 min to 1 hour for the driver to pick you up.

Dear Sir/ Madame
