JFK International Airport AirTrain
AirTrain JFK is the train service that operates between JFK

It also serves as an on-airport service connecting the airline terminals, rental
car facilities, hotel shuttles, and airport parking lots.

airtrain schedule
What hours is the Airtrain running? Or does it provide 24 hour service?
nevermind
Nevermind, I finally found the answer at http://www.panynj.gov/airports/jfk-airtrain.html. It runs 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Convenient!

Bayside by LIRR
I'm going to be flying into JFK from Canada on a Sunday morning, I believe arriving on an AA flight in Terminal 8. I'm trying to plan the cheapest, fastest way to get from JFK to Bayside Station in Queens. Am I correct in thinking this would be the most economical option is to take the AirTrain to Jamaica ($5), take LIRR to the Woodside Station ($4.50), and then go from Woodside to Bayside ($4.50?). Wondering since I'm arriving on a Sunday, if I'd be able to use a CityTicket for the LIRR fares. Also wondering if I could just transfer at Woodside or if I'll need to pay a second fare to continue to Bayside. Am I correct in thinking this would be the most economical option or should I go by taxi/bus? Is luggage going to be an issue if I end up with one regular size suitcase?
time required from terminal 3 to terminal 1
I am arriving on a Saturday afternoon at terminal 3 on a Delta flight from Indianapolis, and departing for Rome, Italy on New Alitalia probably terminal 1. Will I have to collect my checked bags and go through security again? I only have 1 hour and 35 minutes between flights. How much time is required to walk between terminal 3 and 1 versus the airtrain? Thanks

Hi, I will be flying to JFK
Hi,
I will be flying to JFK to wait for a family member coming to the States for the first time and cannot speak English. I will arrive at terminal 3 whereas he will arrive at terminal 4. Is it possible to wait for him right at the luggage claim area at terminal 4? And then we need to go back to terminal 3 to catch a connection flight to NC.
Also, as I said he doesn't speak English. Is that a problem? I mean what if the officer needs to ask him a question or so, is there a translation service available?
Thanks
Walk between terminal 3 and 4
Hi,

transfer from Jerusalem El Al flight to domestic Delta
I arrive in JFK in terminal 4 and need to transfer to terminal 3. As I understand I have to receive my bags and pass customs. do I have to take my bags all the way to terminal 3 and check them in there, or I check them in in terminal 4 after the customs?
Thanks,
LM
JFK to PENN
Hi,
I will be flying from Paris to JFK and arriving at 10.20, what are my chances of making it to PENN station by 12.45.
Is this possible or will it entirely be dependant on customs and if I get lucky with airtrain connections?
Thanks in advance!
It always depends on how
It always depends on how long it takes to get through customs and if your flight is delayed arriving. With the main runway now closed for construction and the other three handling all traffic I'd wouldn't count on making it by 12:45.
Connecting between Terminals 3 - 8
I'm arriving in Terminal 3 (Delta) and then departing a few hours later out of Terminal (2) also Delta. Friends of mine are on American Airlines leaving out of Terminal 8/9. I would like to visit with them for a few minutes to say hello before all of our flights depart, how long would it take me to get from Terminal 3 - 8, and then from 8 - 2? Is Airtrain the easiest and fastest way?
