Are there any resturants at the airport. I have a feeling that I am going to be there for a while and would like to be able to eat and pass the time.
What are some cheap forms of ground transportation from JFK Airport to Bethpage on Long Island over a weekend?
Take Airtrain from terminal to Jamaica Station and LIRR to Bethpage. Total fare on a weekend is $10.25 and the trains generally run every hour.
My family and I travelled on Flight SAA 203 sunday 11 July to JFK. On arrival, my niece`s bag had obviously been tampered with at Johannesburg, with an empty can of Coca Cola and a ribbon placed in the luggage. My concern is the lack of security, where anything can be placed in a piece of luggage, whether it be contraband, or an explosive device. The passenger is entirely unaware as to this, as the lugggage has already been checked thru.
Any contraband found at JFK would result in severe penalty to the passenger.
It a timed device was placed in luggage, and was set to activate on arrival at JFK, the results could be catastrophic.
As a frequent flyer to the US, this is the first time that this has happened, but did cause some panic amongst family members.
Is there any way that security can be beefed at airports outside the US,up under orders from the US Government.

Hello,
I am taking a domestic Jetblue flight from BOS to JFK and have to connect to a Lan Ecuador flight to Guayaquil. I believe the Jetblue flight arrives at Terminal 8 and the Lan Ecuador fligth departs from Terminal 4. How do I get from one terminal to the other? Is there a cost envolved? Do I have the JFK terminals for each airline correct?
Thanks!!!
Jet Blue from BOS arrives at T5; take Airtrain on track 2 to Terminal 4 - it is free.

I had the misfortune of accompanying someone to JFK yesterday. The person was elderly and requested a wheel chair through their carrier, Egypt Air. I have never seen such disorganization and uncoordinated efforts like I saw in terminal 4 yesterday! After checking in your baggage, you have to stand on a line to drop your luggage off at the conveyor belt. The traveler we accompanied sat in the wheel chair while my husband and I had to stand on a line for approximately an hour and a half to drop off the luggage! Half way through the wait the person wheeling her and the person "supposedly" organizing the line said if the person is in a wheel chair, they can go with their luggage to the front of the line. As we listened, we left the line to move forward, which took us at least 10 minutes. When we got to the front, we were yelled at, abused and told we were trying to cut the line! The jest of the whole thing is, we lost our spot, we had to go back to the end of the line and the traveler we accompanied was wheeled all the way in, leaving her luggage with us (isn't this against security rule?). We never even got to say goodbye to her. JFK and Egypt Air personnel were rude and crass. There has to be a better way to treat travelers. Why can't you check in and just drop off your luggage like it's done everywhere else? I was very disappointed and will do anything to avoid traveling out of JFK or on Egypt Air in the future!
I am arriving JFK at 22:15 on Delta to T3. Will be taking El Al flight to Israel from T4 at 23:50. Is there a way to get from T3 to T4 without exiting T3 and going through security again at T4? If not, is 1 1/2 hours enough time to make the transfer? I am sending my 1 luggage through from LAX to Israel.
Please advise ASAP, flight leaves tomorrow morning.
Thanks.

Hello,
I am traveling to Japan on Monday April 19th and 12:30pm, when should i arrive at the airport to get through check in and security checks on time? and also, are there foreign currency exchanges available?
Personal goods were removed from my brothers luggage at JFK by TSA they left 2 notes in the bag. We have phoned +- 60 people in the USA and in our USA councular offices, to no avail we just come to a blank wall nobody at TSA is prepared to help, I cannot get hold of some of the more senior staff to help. They have forwarded a website that you can claim but we want the goods back as we cannot obtain this in our country The goods are two coil over shockabsorbers bought at Aldans in LA. This is for rebuilding a 1939 Chevy The shopping for these items gave the whole family such pleasure, but alas this is now a diaster. We have traveled from Chicago to Boston to NY to DC to Miami and back to JFK and the luggage was searched and notes left and the goods were left in the luggage. Why now?
used to be able to access the radar screens to see aircraft approaching. How do I get that screen

I am trying to find out if a flight arrived on time to India from JFK, leaving JFK on 7/24/08 PM to India! And exactly what time it arrived there (our time).

Thanks.
We are due to go to Florida in early September flying with Delta from Edinburgh (Scotland) via JFK to Orlando. One of the return flight options gives us the opportunity to have a 12hr layover at JFK before our return flight to Edinburgh. My question is, if we choose this option will we be allowed to leave JFK and visit New York or will we be restricted due to being checked straight through on the Delta flights.
Any help greatly appreciated !!

Is there a place to store luggage at airport or a train station while one would go into the City to sightsee and then continue to Hauppage?
Help I need to know if there is a place to rest at the airport and shower ect. I have a 12 hr layover..

This is an all new JFK limousine service in New York City for transfers to Manhattan hotels.
This is the worst airport website I have come across. Where is the map of the entire airport, with public transport highlighted? Where is the NYC map with the airport on it? Where is the email address to complain about the uselessness of this website? Please step up and make it Better!! Please. You would have many more satisfied customers.
This is not the official airport website
This is: http://www.panynj.gov/CommutingTravel/airports/html/kennedy.html
and has all the information you're looking for.
does anyone know where i can find a currency exchange in JFK? i have an international flight tomorrow and would like to convert a small amount before i leave. thanks!
Where do I find a flight guide for JFK, at least for international destinations? Every other airport website I've been to has clear and uncluttered websites with excellent flight guides. I must say, this is by far the worst airport website I've visited all day. It seems impossible to navigate to actual flight information.
This is a very poor website for accessing this information. Other airport sites make this available.
I am flyingout dec 27th. The on-line commercial parking lots are full. What should I do? How baout the airport long term parking?
