It will be tight but you have a chance of making that connection if your flight is on time.

Thank you.

What terminal I will departure from? In case I will be late, is it possible to change the ticket to the nearest fligt to denver?

Jetblue is at terminal 5 and thats your departure terminal. You may want to call Jet Blue regarding any rebookings.

Hello! A month ago I booked a domestic Delta flight from Vermont to JFK on July 20th, arriving Terminal 3 at 8:00 PM with a connection to Paris on Air France, departing 9:50 PM. I know that I will need to get to Terminal 1 and go through security for Air France. I thought that the 1:50 was enough time for my connection. But Delta has just changed my Vermont departure time by 20 minutes later, so now I only have 1:30 for the connection/security. Do I need to consider paying a change fee to rebook on an earlier Delta flight into JFK, or is 1:30 enough time for my connection? Many thanks for sharing your expertise and estimations!

Your bags should be clipped all the way to Paris France. You should be fine with an hour and thirty minute time frame for a connection.

I am scheduled to depart for amsterdam on dl935, operated by KLM.
The website says that i leave from Terminal 3, the Boarding pass says terminal 4-
Which is it?

Terminal 4.

Hello! Tomorrow I am returning to JFK from Heathrow via Delta with 20 students in tow. We are scheduled to arrive at 3:39 and to depart to Cincinnati at 5:10. I am concerned about the tight connection since we have to go thru customs (based on your other answers, if the flight is at all delayed or customs is busy, we will miss the connection).

Obviously being stranded with 20 students is not appealing. Can you help me:
1. Determine the best route from where we will arrive from Heathrow in terminal 4 to where we will depart to Cincinnati- terminal 3. I heard it involves a tram and going outside? Can this be the case?

2. I was told there may be a quick connection option at customs. Can you tell me about this?
Thanks! MWG

Call airlines please.

I am coming in from Houston to JFK on a Delta Connection flight operated by Mesaba Airlines and need to connect to another Delta flight to Paris (operated by Air France). Are these airlines in the same terminal? They were all booked through Delta, but the outgoing flight to Paris is actually operated by Air France so I'll need to check in there. I have never been to JFK so need to be prepared!

Delta and Air France share a code agreement. You will most likely land and depart from terminal 3 at JFK.

Air France operates out of Terminal 1 .

Thanks so much!

Hi! We'll be arriving back into JFK from India via India Air on Jan. 30th at 6:00am. Do you think 3.5 hours is enough time to allow to clear customs and immigration and pick up our connecting JetBlue flight at 9:30? We won't have any luggage to claim. Don't think it should be too busy at this time in the morning but wanted to ask an expert for their opinion. Thanks!

You have time to relax and to easily make your connection.
