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.

My family is flying into JFK
My family is flying into JFK from London on AA on Friday June 17, and they continue to Cleveland on AA as well. Will they have to change terminals, and what should they do with their luggage to ensure it is not lost? It would always get lost when I traveled internationally through JFK... Quick response would be greatly appreciated.
