Hello,
I was going to come to JFK from Miscow on Jan 3rd, but russian Customs stopped me due to some buracratic reasons. But the problem is that before this, I came to Moscow from other russian city and my luggage as well was going to transfer straightly to JFK. SO I was stopped, but my luggage wasn't (Aeroflot airlines says, that it was sent to JFK). I wanted to ask you if it's possible to track my luggage whether it is in JFK, so when I go there on Jan 6th I can get it. Flight details: Aeroflot; SU-102 (terminal 1); Jan 3rd.
Thank you
Please can you provide information of how to go from terminal 1 to terminal 8, after clearing US customs ?
I also have to make a connection after 3 hours so is it enough ?
Yes plenty of time. From T1 take an air train on track 2 to T8.

Dear sir,
my boss Daniel Steinke is traveling on the 26th of Dec from Moscow to JFK and then to Las Vegas with Delta airlines together with Aeroflot. His Arrival is at 17-10 in terminal 1 and departure is at 19-10 from terminal 3. I was advised that he will need to get the boarding pass for the flight to Las Vegas in JFK. Is it enough to pass all the passport/customs control and make a check-in?
And how it is possible to get from the T1 to the T3?
Thank you in advance!
kind regards,

2 hours should be enough. Take an air train on track 2 from T1 to T3.

One TSA guy called me "STUPID" when I lightly pushed a luggage to where had a bunch of other luggages because i had many bags in my hands, he asked me to put the luggage nicely, so I came back and said sorry to him, put bag at the same spot and same position nicely. He called out loud "STUPID" behind me, a lot of people all heard that and looked at me. But I just ignored and didn't say anything. After I arrived my country, my luggage's became such a mess, ALL clothes were unfolded, the cosmetic bag was open and all cosmetics spread out on EACH SIDE of the luggage, even my expensive camera lens and flasher that I put carefully in their original bags among clothes were taken out and even my flasher cap and lens cap. Among such a mess, I found a note written on a tower paper "GIVE BAG NICELY NEXT TIME BITCH" (All letter were capitalized).
I do hear TSA would leave a note after they searched your bag, but I believe it's not a note like that. I would fire a complain to JFK, once I come back America, I would consult a lawyer and ask what I can do since I feel extremely assaulted. The word BITCH is a strong sexist and insulting word, I feel this could be a gender or even race discrimination since I am asian. I still have the note and I remember that guy speaks spanish and how he looks like.
You go through security at JFK with your carry-on bags ONLY...So how come "After I arrived my country, my luggage's became such a mess"? Was not that luggage on the cabin with you all the time during the flight? So many lies in this post....
The people and officers who work there are a bunch of racists. I have had my luggages searched multiple times, including luggages only filled with books. Uneducated Americans just can't understand why people would bring a luggage with books only. I do not blame them for that reason. But I have had other encounters where I was picked to have a chat with a police officer who asked me how much cash I am bringing out of the States. I have other friends who have had the same experience and they all find such incidents have higher probability of occurring when they are bringing expensive handbags. To all the Asians out there, be careful of those racists in JFK trying to give us a difficult time.

Hi, I'll arrive Terminal 1 this Sun, and my husband will be back to Terminal 3 from Tokyo around the same time. Could the passenger meet together on the Homeland Security check queue from different terminal? Or each terminal will have its seperate Homeland Security check and we only meet each other outside the airport?

HI.
I have a green card now (on my new last name) but my passport is on my maden last name. I bought tickets for my maden last name (same like in passport that i`ll travel with). When i come back to USA will i have any troubles? Do i need to take my marriage license and green card? Or what documents i need for airport to come back without problems?
Thank you, M. :)
Just in case make sure you have all necessary documents you mentioned above like green card and marriage license along with ticket and passport. I dont think you should have any problems entering the U.S.

Hi, I’m traveling from Moscow (Aeroflot) to Seattle (Delta) through JFK. Transit in JFK from terminal 1 to terminal 3. My question is about luggage. In Moscow I'm going to tag it for final destination to Seattle. I heard that in JFK I don’t need to check it in again. I have to get my luggage, carry it through Customs and then put it on a transporter. I heard that I don’t need to bring my luggage to terminal 3 myself.
My question is: is there a transporter on terminal 1 and where is its location?
You will need to pick up your luggage in NYC JFK as it is your first entry to U.S and you will need to recheck it through Customs and then recheck it again for your second flight.

Hi,

Thanks in advance,

Hello,
My family is traveling from India to RDU through JFK by Air France. They will arrive in T1 at JFK. The final leg (JFK to RDU) is Air France connection as well(Delta from T3). If their baggages are tagged for final destination (RDU) at the start of their trip in india, is there a facility to re-checkin the baggages at Terminal 1 itself after clearing customs. This will avoid carrying all the way till T3.
Thanks in advance for the reply.
Hi ,
My father and I will depart on the same day. His airline is Cathay Pacific in Terminal 7 and my airline is AA in Terminal 8. Due to he can't speak good English and he is old, i want to do the check-in , security check point and reach the correct gate with him, and then i will depart later on.
I will check-in for myself first in Terminal 8 and go to Terminal 7 to check-in for him. Then i can bring him to the security check point and to the gate.
However, i don't know whether the gates for terminal 7 and 8 are connected. Pls advise any suggestion if i can go through all steps with my father but i still can reach my gate on time.
I am flying from DCA to Moscow via JFK with Aeroflot (both flights). Will my bags go to Moscow directly or I will have to claim baggage at JFK and then recheck it for the Moscow flight?
My fiancé will be arriving from Moscow on Aeroflot Sept 30 (Sunday) at 12:20 in the afternoon. She is coming on a K-1 (fiancé) visa. I understand that it is a bit longer for this type of "immigrant visa". How much time should I figure it will take her (safely) to get through passport control, customs and baggage claim to the arrivals hall? I will be picking her up there at Terminal 1. Also, can someone advise of a decent restaraunt between JFK and the Statue of Liberty (it is the first thing she wants to see in America)
Thanks in advance.
It may take her up to 3 hours to do all necessary paperwork.

Hi..
I'm arriving at JFK on 7/23 around 9pm at T1(KE)... and have a flight to catch at T5 on the next day at 6:30am (B6).. After I pass customs, i plan to go to T4's The Lounge and stay there until they close at 1:30am then either stay at T4 until 4am-ish then go to T5 or go straight to T5 after the lounge closes..
T1->immigration->get my checked bag->customs->Airtrain to T4->out the secured area->the lounge->train to T5? -> chk my bag at B6 desk -> pass the secured area to the gate
am i right?
what do u think? any other ideas? checking into a nearby hotel could be an option but it would only allow me a couple hrs of actual sleep...
thx, the specialist
Stay at Terminal4 which is open 24/7. Your first plan sounds good to me.

Hi!
I have an economy class ticket from JFK on Sept 20 to Vienna. Is it possible to change the class online, or I have to come to the airport. By the way, I'll be in some other airports, not JFK, at the end of August, can I change the class somewhere else, except JFK?
Thank you.

Hi, I have a flight abroad from JFK with TK next week. My flight is in the late afternoon, but I was hoping to do a little duty free shopping before the flight. how early can I check in my luggage and go into the duty free area? Is there a limit (I vaguely remember 3 hours before flight, but that might have been a long time ago...)
thanks for your help! - blue
