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.

U.S. Mail
I think your best bet is to contact the US Postmaster. You might even be able to track the parcel on-line via their website. The USPS does have a "undeliverable" mail office and should try to locate it for you. Google USPS and go from there.
Hi, I am looking for
Hi,
I am looking for information about employment at JFK. Can anyone help me?
Employment
Government jobs were one of the few sectors that grew last year. For a great long-term career, I would look into being a TSA officer (the one's that screen the bags). Do a google search for Transportation and Security Administration Employment.
Also, try Googling FAA employment. Hmmm - a job for life with good pay and benefits - maybe I'll apply. The airlines are not a secure job - they are all cutting pay and benefits.

i had an operation and i have a staple in my lung...
Dear JFK Team and Forum Members,
On the 20th November, 2008 I had an operation (Video-Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery - VATS), because I had several PTX in my left lung. I'm planning to fly New York, JFK because I will have a summer job, in Maryland. I have a medical staple in the upper part of my left lung. Can it causes any trouble, I mean at the checking gates, or anywhere? I have never flight before, so I would appreciate any information.
You can write me here: gagarinn9@yahoo.com
Thank you all for helping,
Gabor
