i would like to know how much time do i have to spend in customs, i will arrive to JFK airport at 4:20 p.m. by aeromexico and i have a connection flight by Delta at 7:00 p.m. do i have enough time to get to my connection flight? what is the average time in customs?

MS (not verified)

The average time in immigration and customs is 20-50 min. You have plenty of time to transfer onto your next flight.

Good afternoon! How many времене it is necessary to reach from the terminal 1 in the terminal 8. On what to reach faster

MS (not verified)

Airtrain is the fastest mening of transportation between the terminals - it takes 1 min from T1 to T8.
For that take Airtrain on track 2.

My boyfriend is scheduled to arrive in Terminal 1 on Aeroflot 315 at 5pm. Will he have enough time to go through Customs and get to Terminal 7 for an 8:28pm flight? Also, how does he get to Terminal 7? Thanks!

BG (not verified)

He should have enough time. Take Airtrain on track 2 (terminal-only route)from T1 to T7.

My mother-in-law is scheduled to arrive on a 1:00 plane from Beijing on August 7. She speaks no English and is traveling on a tourist visa. I was wondering if you could outline the basic procedures upon arriving in the US (e.g., immigration, customs, etc.). Also, if she has difficulties, are there any places to assist her? Finally, we will be picking her up from the airport. Assuming the plane is on time, how long can one expect the immigration/customs procedure to last? Thanks for your assistance!

hi, have a plane to catch and dont know how to go from terminal 3 to terminal 1, would you advice the shortest and easiest way with luggages?

JFK_Employee

Take Airtrain on track 2 - it is only one stop(less than 1 min).

Hi, I´ll be flying with my baby (infant) from Mexico City with Aeromexico to JFK and then with KLM to Amsterdam. I know I have to change the terminal. I will have only 2 hours to transfer. Will I have to pick up my luggage? Is it enough time to transfer with the baby? Are there any special (I mean quicker) line to pass the immigration for the passangers who only transfer in JFK? thank you for your answer.

MS (not verified)

Yes, you have to pick up your luggage and go through customs. There is no quicker way in immigration for that purpose. The time is pretty tight , hopefully Aeromexico is on time.

Thank u so much for yr help ,I appreciate it lots.how much does dinner cost in T1 or T2 ?are there any places where i spend the whole night?thx lots

JFK_Employee

There is nothing open at either T1 or T2 at that time(even those terminals are closed). You can go to Terminal 4(which is open 24 hours) and have a snack or sandwich($5-$10) at the coffee shop there.
Use Airtrain to go between terminals.

Hi,I`ll arrive to JFK T1 from Morocco then i`ll fly from T2 to SFO...I`m a new immigrant,so should I check with immigration & customs in JFK or I wait till I show up to SFO?is is easy to go from T1 to T2 ?are there any ATM machines,I have a depit card,or should i bring with me USD cash with me?plz guide me cuz this is my first flight.than u very much

JFK_Employee

You don't have a choice in this case - you HAVE TO go through immigration at JFK(that is your first point of entry in USA). There is a ATM on the first floor of T1, but it is not a bad idea to have a cash , just in case.
It is very easy to transfer from T1 to T2 - just exit the building and walk to your right - T2 is the very next building(5 min walk).
Since you are new immigrant make sure you have enough time between the two flights. For you, the immigration procedures may take up to 3-4 hours.

Hello,
I am coming from Istanbul,Turkey with Turkish Airlines and I have a connection flight to Norfolk with Delta Airlines.
What is the best way to get to Terminal 3 from Terminal 1?
Do I have to carry my luggages by myself (from Terminal 1 to 3) OR after I go through customs in Terminal 1, does DELTA staff take AND send them to Terminal 3 ?
Thank you in advance

JFK_Employee

You can walk from T1 to T2(it is also Delta building).
You can have Turkish Airlines transfer your bags over to Delta. Do that right after you pass the customs at T1 - there is connecting flights counter as you exit , to your right.

I have a flight on Cayman Airways from the Cayman Islands and then will take a flight to upstate New York on JetBlue. Will my bags automatically transfer or will I have to pick them up before I change terminals? Thanks!

JFK_Employee

Jet Blue does not have a baggage agreement with Cayman Airways so you have to collect your bags and check them in at Jet Blue Terminal.

My mom is travelling from India thru Paris/JFK to Seattle, WA on Air France and Delta. She is coming into JFK on AF 12 that arrives at Terminal 1 at 12:45 pm and leaves to Seattle on DL 1843 at 4:20 pm from Terminal 3. Since she has to clear customs in JFK can she check her bags back in for onward journey at Terminal 1 after customs - like at a connection counter so that she doesn't have to lug it around all the way to Terminal 3. She is going to get wheelchair assistance from the airline (has a fractured heel) - will they take her from customs to Terminal 3 and also make sure her bags are transferred for her connecting domestic flight ?

JFK_Employee

She can transfer her bags after she pass US customs at Air France Connecting flights counter. The wheelchair assistant have to bring her to Delta check-in counters where she can ask Delta for their wheelchair assistance.

My mother is flying in on Aeroflot to T1 and only has 1hr50 min to go through customes/luggage and get to T3 on Delta flight to CVG. Will she have enough time? Can I arrange for some kind of assistance? Would she be able to walk over to T3 or only Airtran is available, if walking how long? outside or inside walking?

JFK_Employee

Hopefully her Aeroflot flight is not late. And she has her boarding pass from Aeroflot for the flight to CVG. Let her transfer her bags at Aeroflot Connecting flights counter at T1 right after she passes the customs.
It is very convenient to check-in at T2 for any Delta flight - the terminal is within walking distance(3-5 min, outside) from Terminal 1.

Hello, my mother is flying in from Russia into Terminal 1 and then has to go to Terminal 3 to catch a flight to CVG in 1.50min. Is that enough time to go through customs, get the luggage and etc??? Also how do you get from Terminal 1 to 3: walking (how long? outside or inside)/airtain? or other ways?

David_M (not verified)

I have a flight on delta arriving at 2:45pm and an outbound
flight on Turkish Airlines at 4:45pm, just 2 hours. Will this
be enough time to make this connection? Will I have to recheck
baggage or go through a security screening at JFK?

Thank you

JFK_Employee

Most likely you don't have to deal with your bags at JFK(check with Delta again). You will clear security again at T1.

Hi, I will arrive to JFK from Morocco on terminal 1 and then I have to take another flight to Atlanta after 3 hours from terminal 3. Are 3 hours enough to complete the immigration process and get to terminal 3 at time?

You have plenty of time to do that.

My flight originates in Honolulu, connecting in LA, then I will be arriving JFK on United flight 82 from LA. Arrives 7:01 a.m. I will then have to connect to United flight 5255 operated by Tam Linhas Aereas departing 9:25 a.m. to Sao Paulo, Brazil. My flight itinerary states to "please check in w/operating carrier." Will I arrive and depart from the same terminal at JFK? Also, if I need to check in with the operating carrier, does that mean, I just go to the counter at the gate? Hope I have giving enough information. Thanks for your help in advance.

BG (not verified)

United arrives at T7 and I believe TAM is located at T4 so you'll need to get your bags from your United flight, take the Airtrain to T4 and check in for your TAM flight.
