You do have to collect your bags in order to pass US customs. Then recheck them in with the airline.

Hello, my mom has arrived in NY at JFK. She didn't get the visa to enter the US. How can I get in touch with her?
Is there anyway of contacting a customer help desk via the internet, My friend is stranded after missing there connecting flight to Dublin ireland with no cell phone so we have no way of contacting him, can we get him paged or anything, hes there now?
Hi, I'll be travelling to JFK from abroad. Is there any cellphone sim card to buy at JFK? Thanks
Hi,
First time visitors come in USA and they are landing on JFK terminal 4,NY. And they have connecting flight from JFK terminal 3,NY. so my question is "do they will get any help from local authorities?" If "yes", how can they reach local authorities? Because my concern is they don't miss their connecting flight. for this if i have to talk or any other procedure let me know.
Thanks.
How long is their time frame between the flights? What airlines/flights are they flying on? Are they green card holders?
JFK_E
Thanks for replying, But they are not green card holder they have 3 hours time between the connecting flights. there connecting flight is delta for Detroit. so still they get help from local authorities. If yes let me know the procedure, Thanks.
Let them check with Delta after they land - the flight to Detroit sometimes departs out of T4.
There is not that much help offered by "local authorities" at JFK. Let your parents ask anybody with a uniform and ID for help - they won't be turned down.

My boss is coming to NY next week. How does she go from the Sheraton New York Towers & Hotel to JFK?
Thanks,
mother and child with different passports
Mother with american passport, child (2 years) with foreign passport (not american citizen). Are there special papers to fill in? I expect the mother and child to go through the control for american citizens together.
Go to the same line - the immigration officers will take care of everything(papers,etc.). It will be a little bit lengthy process.

My niece ( Pamella Di Palma ) called me last monday morning,and she told me that she was getting on board to Naples,FL.
She should call me right after arriving there, and this not happened. I'm very worried.
Does anybody can help me?
Thanks
I am a greencard holder. I was treated very bad by immigration officers at JFK airport terminal 7. They were so rude and mean to me and they put wrong information on my customs form to let custom officer to stop me. I think it's illegal for goverment officer to write false information on goverment document. How can I complain about them? I am scared if they messed up my information on my data.
Some Americans forget their ancestors immigrated here too.
Not all of us native Americans are as ignorant as the victim-of-a-superiority-complex eglen that left this message. And might I add, they are dying away. Children see children, not colored children. That all depends on the "nourishment" they received from their parents. Anyway, call your congressman. Ask them what you need to do.
"AnonymousUSA", you're a disgrace to the USA ... its YOU who should stay out, and attitudes such as yours which are the reasons we have racism and prejudice continue through the ages. "Stay out of America and you won't have this problem."!? Please ... get a life you coward.
good morning
i am a dual citizen, but my amarican passport just expired a few days ago. may i enter the u.s with my second passport? if not, what would i risk? a fee, being held up or even losing my u.s passport?
thank you for helping!
What other country are you a dual citizen of?
I'm a Spanish and American dual citizen and I went to Spain with my American passport and returned with my American passport, but I was told if you return with your "other country" passport you will need to present proof of being a citizen with that other country (whether it be the passport, the resident card, etc) I was also told by a family friend (who worked for Iberia) that the American government may stop you and tell you to choose between being American or "other country". I suggest you renew your American passport as soon as possible to avoid any problems at the airport. I also suggest if you are using your "other country" passport to only use it within the country/continent (IE: from Madrid to Rome, Madrid to Barcelona, etc) Also, when you go to renew your passport as them what they suggest.
I hope I was able to help you a bit, let me know any other information you may find out :)
Please let me know which terminal is assigned for visa waiver program what the checking procedures are and where and when (for e.g. before flying to the US or at the US airport upon arrival)I can get the green I94W form.
A friend of mine took a similar flight and she had to go through immigration at jfk. And 75 min is cutting it close, but the plane may actually wait for you, if you're late (unless you're badly held up), since they have info on you. If you're flying out from the same terminal, you should be fine.
Swiss arrives at JFK, from ZRH, (AA flight #65)@ 1:40pm Terminal 8
Departure to SFO (AA flight #85)@ 2:55pm Terminal 8
Do we pass through the immigration?
If yes, are 75minutes enough time?
Thanks for answer.
To masi: I' m taking the same flights on Sunday. Do you already know more about the stop in NY? So wether 75 min are enough to make it through the immigration or wether we do not have to pass through the immigration at JFK?
I really would appreciate an answer!
It does not take 5 hours. He may be being held up... This is tricky, I'd call the embassy to see if they've been contacted.
How long does it take to get through customs? I have a friend from Ghana, Africa that landed 5 hours agao, and still have not heard from her..Thanks Lindy

Thank a lot.
If arriving Terminal 3 to connect with an international flight out of Terminal 4, will passenger have to go through security again?

Hi we are travelling to bermuda via JFK do we clear immigration in new york or in Bermuda and do we have to claim our bags or do they go straight to our desination?
Hi, my friends and I are traveling from NY to Amsterdam, and I was wondering if anyone has any advice on what exactly we should have with us~ do we need certain things to leave US from NY and do we need certain forms to enter Amsterdam? I have been looking into this a lot but I would like to hear from someone who could tell me in more detail~ we already have passports, no visas bc its just a short trip, and I read that I dont need any immunizations for Netherlands but may want to go ahead and get yellow fever, but this is all i know so if i am missing something important.... PLEASE HELP! thanks so much!
You will need your passport. Before you land in Amsterdam the flight atendant will hand out cards for you to fill out, documenting what your travel plans are. You will hand that document and your passport to the immigration person. There is no reason, in my opinion, to get Yellow Fever vaccine. I went to Kenya and didn't need to get it. I think it would be a waste of money.
arrive at JFK from LAX (AA flight #40) @ 7:25pm
depart JFK to STN (AA flight #128) @ 9:45pm
what is required for security between these flights?
how far apart are the gates for these 2 flights
Hi, I don't think you have to go through security as both of your flights arrive and depart at Terminal 8. This will be different when you return from London as immigration is involved. Gate is not pre-determined but it will not take more than 15 minutes even if your arriving gate is in satellite and departing gate is at the main building. Have a safe trip!
I just want to check how far is Terminal 7 from terminal 6.
I am taking a flight from London to JFK and land in terminal 7 at
6:45p.m(British Airways). Will you think I will be able to connect for another flight at 8:45pm (jetblue) from JFK to Rochester at terminal 6. Hope to hear from you. Thank you.
I am arriving on American Airlines and my daughter is arriving on Jetblue..how can I meet her at her gate? I have an hour downtime?

Hi, I'm a US citizen and will be flying to Brazil this Friday evening. I'll be taking 2 laptop computers with me (1 for personal use and 1 for work). I was told that if I might have problems going through customs in Brazil if they inspect my luggage and find 2 computers. I might be charged a large fee there since I was told people are only allowed to bring into Brazil US$500 worth of electronics bought here in the States. Someone told me there's a way for me to register my 2 laptops (fill out a customs form I can show I own the 2 computers) somewhere at JFK before I board the plane so if I'm stopped at Customs in Brazil I won't be subjected to any fees there. Where at JFK should I go to do that? Is there a customs office at JFK that could help me out with this??
I appreciate any help I can get!
Thank you!
