TAM (JJ) is normally at terminal 4.

Hi there. I am landing at JFK on Emirates at 14:15pm on a Friday. I then need to take a flight to Rochester. How long do I need to go through customs and pick up luggage and then check in for my next flight?

For all that give yourself 2-3 hours minimum.

Hi ... I will be arriving to JFK on the 13th of december at @ 9 pm .. and will have to catch another plane on the 14th of december at 6am meaning most probably I'll have to check in at about 4am or sooner.. I will like to know if it's possible to just wait in the airport instead of staying at a hotel ??..
Thanks in advance...

Hey JFK_employee! I am arriving on terminal 4 from Brazil and I have to meet my sister, arriving on terminal 8, an hour later.
How do I go from T4 to T8? What´s a good place on T8 for us to meet. Thnaks

Hi, I;m arriving to JFK september 16th at around 7am with American Airlines from Uruguay. Then we are taking a flight on our own from JFK to Pittsburgh in Delta Airlines. I already know very well JFK airport and airtrain...so i know ill probably land in terminal 8 and will need to go to terminal 3. Our flight to pittsburgh is at 12 noon...will that be ok? Do we have enough time to pick our baggage and then check in at delta??? thank you!!!!!

Five hours time is plenty to transfer at JFK.

Hi. I'm flying from Dublin with Delta and going to Boston on JetBlue. Have only 2 hours for connection - is that enough? Which terminal JetBlue is flying from?
Thanks!

Two hours would be kind of tight considering the fact that you have to clear customs,immigration, transfer from T3 to T5 and check in there with Jet Blue.

I believe immigration is already handled by Dublin airport but don't quote me on that!

You might be right - either Dublin or Shannon(if not both) flights are pre-cleared in Ireland. I will double check that...

I am arriving on terminal 1 from Brazil and I have to meet my daughter, arriving from France, on terminal 4.
How do I go from T4 to T1?

Take Airtrain on the third floor of T4, on track 2. T1 is two stops away(2 mins ride).

Hi. Im thinking of arriving to JFK with Delta Air Lines DL5956 flight from Detroit at 3.44PM and have a connection to Helsinki with Finnair at 5.40PM. Are these terminals far away far away from each other? Is this 1h 56 minutes enough for collecting luggage, new check-in and changing terminal?

Thanks for your help in advance

The terminals are connected via Airtrain which make the distance not that far. It only 10-15 mins(including walking to/from stations).
I believe Delta can check your bags all the way through Helsinki - this way you don't have to pick them up at JFK. Explore that option with Delta in Detroit.
