How long does it take from terminal 8 to terminal 1 with the airtrain?
From station 8 to station 1 - exactly 8 minutes. Add additional 10-15 more minutes for walking time and waiting at the station for the train.

Hi!
in March i will be arriving in Terminal 1 where my parents are going to pick me up. where is a good place for them to meet me to pick me up. i wont have a cell phone or anything and have never been to this airport. ALSO, i have a dog flying cargo, how is easy is it to find cargo? where do you pick up your baggage at terminal 1 and would this be a good place to meet mom and dad?
Terminal 1, 1 st floor(or arrivals level) would be the best place to meet. Which airline is flying the cargo? Most of the airlines have their cargo buildings on the JFK premises.

thank you so much

there is an airtrain right outside the terminal. follow the signs which will show you how to go from terminal to terminal
I am going to pickup my family at JFK terminal 2.
Can anybody suggest me the best way going from parking lot to terminal 2 and back to parking lot with heavy lugguage.Appreciate your response.Thanks.
My girlfriend is stuck on the airport without a cell phone. She is at terminal 1, and her flight company was Air France. Is there a way I can get in touch with someone on the airport so they can announce that she comes to the informational desk or somewhere I can call her. Please let me know ASAP!! Thanks
Hi!!!
Me and my friend are going to Ne York in a few days. He arrives at the Terminal 3 ad I arrive at the 7th one. Is it possible to go from oneto the other once you have picked up the laggage? How long does it take?
I am arriving at Terminal 3 and my friends from Italy will be arriving at Terminal 1. Where is the best place to meet her at Terminal 1? I'm not sure how everything works with customs and what areas I can/cannot get in to. On the website for JFK it gives a list of places to eat Post-Security and Pre-Security, and I was just confused as to where the best place to meet them would be so we can take a cab to our hotel together. I'm going on Tuesday so if someone could please help me out before then that would be wonderful!
Arrival area of Terminal 1 is not too large, but Information Counter right after custom would be easy to find for everyone. Tell your friend arriving at T1 to go left getting out of custom area. Information counter is right there.
Is 2 1/2 hours enough time to clear customs at Terminal 1 and make it to Terminal 7? Do you have to go through TSA again to get in Terminal 7?
Yeah, although it varies on what time your flight arrives. If you are a U.S. passport holder the line moves relatively quickly (i.e. 10-30 minutes) and the Airtain between Terminals runs very often.
Do you pick up luggage before customs?
Are there carts to rent?
Where do you short term park to pick up someone?
Thanks
they made me pick up my luggage before customs, then they searched it. have fun.
there is a difference between immigration (passport checks) and customs (baggage inspection). You have to go through passport checks first, then you wait for your luggage to arrive and go through customs (baggage checks). Depending on how many planes have arrived at the same time, passport control can take longer than customs. If you are connecting to a domestic flight you still have to go through passport control then customs, and then recheck your luggage (which has most probably been ticketed all the way through to your final destination). Good luck and pleasant journey
Hi, i will be arriving with my kids at terminal 1, I know that I have to get my luggage and go through customs. I have a connecting Flight with jetblue. Do I leave my luggage at the counters behind customs or do I have to take them to Terminal 5? what is the fastest way to get there. Please be so kind to advice. Thanks
I arrive with Delta at Terminal 3 and have a connecting flight from Terminal 1. My service dog travels with me and I need to find a spot where I can take her outside. Any suggestions? some small area preferably with grass would be great. I have about 3.5 hours between flights and might have to take my luggage from T3 to T1 as I have two tickets with two different airlines and I am not sure I can check my luggage through. All help/hints welcome.
You could take the Airtrain out to Federal Circle (last stop before Jamaica Station) and there might be some outside/grass area for him to stretch out! Good luck.
I would like to know how to get from terminal 1 to terminal 8.What floor is the airtrain located?
when you get out of the Terminal 1 you will just cross the street and take the elevator up. Thats it.
Hi. Does anybody know if @ T1 is available the machine for luggages plastic wrapping? Thanks
hello
I am arriving at terminal 4 and have to wait for my brother arriving at terminal 1,so we can travel to NY together. How do I come to that terminal at the "arrival"? Yhank you
Best bet is to take the Airtrain to Terminal 4 and meet him at Starbucks or some other store chain like that.
Hallo,
Wer kann mir sagen wo bzw. in welchen Terminal der
"DUNKIN DONUTS" zu finden ist.
Danke!!
Hi everyone...
My mom is coming from Brazil to New York for Christmas.
Unfortunately she doesn't speak English nor spanish...
I'd like to know if at the immigration clerk there's any attendant who speaks portuguese. Maybe she'll understand a little spanish, but I'm really worry!
Other problem is to pass the security line! I know those guys don't speak any other language than english...
Does anyone of you have any tips for me, please?
Thanks a lot, guys!
Ed.
Hi Ed, I just stumbled across this page and thought maybe i could help -- why don't you call the airlines? I imagine they would help you out. They must have a portuguese speaking person around (after all, they're flying in from Brazil). I am optimistic someone will be there to meet her and explain what she needs to do. I believe you will be allowed to meet her at the luggage carosel, but i am not positive; there is no security once you have landed, so that will not be an issue in NY. (the security is prior to flying, in Brazil). good luck! Peggy
You will *not* be able to meet her at the baggage carousel as that's still on the "secure" side of customs. You can only greet her after she clears immigration, collects her bags and passes through the customs declaration area and emerges into the reception hall.
Hello,
Could anyone tell me how I can get from Terminal 1 to Terminal 3 and how long will it take?
thank you.
Svetlana
there is a simple train that connects all terminals. It will take about 2 minutes of travel
time. Called AIR TRAIN. Its free. It comes every few minutes
There haven't been busses between terminals at JFK for years. It is all on the Air Train. I do it every week.
Hi. does anyone know how to find a gate number if I only have my flight number. I fanyone knows please get back to me. Thank you.
Your gate is only assigned on the day of departure. As long as you go to the right terminal (noted on your itinerary), you're all set.
Hello,
How long does it take to walk from Terminal 3 to Terminal 1? And what is the best route?
I have an international connecting flight at JFK, do I need to carry my checked baggage from one terminal to the other or I drop it off after customs?
Thank you,
Hi! I will have to transit at the JFK airport, specifically from terminal 1 to terminal 3. The problem is that I will have to carry many big luggages by myself while my wife is taking care of my two babies. I wonder if any form of porter service is available at the airport. Thank you in advance for your information.
Hi,
is there a pedestrian connection between terminal 1 and 2 ? thanks
Hey everyone,
Anybody knows what should I do if I want to go from terminal 1 to 8 and how long does it takes? I have 2 hours and a half after the arrival (in terminal 1). I have to do all the "check out process" also the "check in" in terminal 8. Im really worried about it please help!
Thanks
You can make it, I did it many times... 2:30 is enough.
It should take 1:25 minutos do get from one to the other.
You wont make it..
Security lines are crazy. Plus waiting for that stupid train and getting to it is pain............
Hi, I am flying with Delta Airline (T3) from San Diego to JFK. I have to catch the next flight to Vienna, Austrian Airline (T1). I have about 3 hours time to take the lagguage and get to Terminal 1 to check in.
