What is the policy for liquid medications in your carry on. I know there is a limitation for liquids in general. But if you have a prescription medication that you don't want to place in your unlocked checked bags, do you just need to have them check it?

Be sure to take your prescription medication out of your carry on and put in the gray bin through the x-ray. If they ask you about it tell them it's prescription medication and they'll either test it or let it go.

It is true that JFK airport is going to undergo renovation and will be close for 2 months?

Thanks

Kathy

As far as I know the airport wont be closed entirely but the terminals one by one

No , it is the closing ONLY of one of the JFK runways for renovations.
JFK has total four runways, so during that period of at least 4 months the rest three will handle the load.

How is the freeway condition from JFK to Manhattan??
Are the highways hazardous to drive on??

Right now all the roads out of JFK are clear. Check Google.com for any traffic.

yes my daughter is sitting in paris for the last 12 hrs. awaiting her flight to jfk...arrived there from nigeria...everyone at the airport is screaming...horrible service from air france

I arrived at JFK from Qatar friday. I had a connection from JFK to ALB and was supposed to be in albany in a few hours. at the delta transfer counter the attendant told me that the flight was canceled due to weather and that I would have to be re-booked. She said that she re-booked me for a Sunday night flight but said that I would be on standby for that flight. Remember this is friday at 1pm. a 48 layover for a 1 hour flight? I asked if Delta would be providing accomodations and she responded that they are not responsible since it was an act of god. I then asked her if it was just delta that was canceled or all airlines. She responded, "all traffic out of and in to JFK was canceled". I responded "all traffic?" she replied, "yes, there have been no arrivals or departures today, JFK is completely shut down." Really, I responded "Then how did I just land here a few minutes ago, and why did I see several Delta planes taking off while I was taxi'ing in". She responded with "well I dont know about that". She had a very poor attitude and this is just another example of Delta proving POOR service with flights and customer service. I rented a car and drove from JFK to ALB in less than 3 hours. Completely clear weather the whole way. Delta, you are horrible. Forgive spelling errors, typed this on a phone.

Sorry for your experience with Delta. FYI - JFK was not shut down during the last winter storm. A lot of domestic flights were canceled(including on Delta). The Delta employee was not telling you the truth and you should have complained to her immediate supervisor. Even now is not too late to write your experience and send it to Delta. Believe it or not, one letter can make a big difference.
