History - Construction of the airport began in 1942 with modest ambitions. Only 1,000 acres (4 km²) of land on the site of Idlewild golf course were earmarked for use.

The airport was formally dedicated as New York International Airport on July 31, 1948. It was re-dedicated on December 24, 1963 as John F. Kennedy International Airport, following action of the Mayor and Council of the City of New York, and a resolution of the Commissioners of the Port Authority. After the September 11, 2001 attacks, JFK was one of the first airports in the United States to be temporarily closed.

Flying from PSA to LAS via JFK baggage claim and new check in
Hi, I'm flying with Delta From PSA (Italy) to JFK then from JFK to Las Vegas after 4 hours, my flights are:
PISA DL 0137 U 07AUG 1325 UHSX1T 1PC OK
NEW YORK JFK ARRIVAL TIME: 1725
TERMINAL:3
NEW YORK JFK DL 1729 U 07AUG 2129 UHSX1T 1PC OK
TERMINAL:3
LAS VEGAS LAS ARRIVAL TIME: 0012
TERMINAL:1
I'm aware that landing in JFK after the immigration check I have to claim my baggage and check-in again before Las Vegas Flight.
What I need to know is:
do I have to go outside and check-in again just as I'm taking a new flight or there's an internal way to get to another check-in desk dedicated to passengers with connection flights? I'm worried 4 hours aren't really enough !
Thanks
Regards
If at check-in your bags are
If at check-in your bags are tagged to Las Vegas, when you exit customs take your bags to the connecting flights counter. If not you will need to re-check at the ticket counter on the departures level. Four hours should be plenty of time.
thanks !!!
thanks !!!
