Hello! Is it possible for me to call to the air traffic controller who works at terminal 4? What number should I dial?
Can anybody tell me what is the number of Emirates check in counter?
I am travelling next week to India with 3 kids.( 2 under 2)
So I would like to be there early and get the bassinets.
Which airline is using the same counter before Emirates check in starts? I will be at the airport around 4 pm but my flight is only at 11 pm.
If I know the counter number , I can just wait there even if it is checking in for a different carrier.
Pls help....We really need the bassinets?

Hello i'm from El Salvador and my Grandmother Maria Amelia Hercules flew from El Salvador to N.Y. in flight number TA 570 on 01/12/2012 i looked up for information and the flight got delayed but she is not at home yet. I have dialed to her house and have no answer also tried to dial 800 535-8780 from here (El Salvador) and doesn't work.
I need to know if she's ok or something happened. I feed up the form on line of Avianca when we were making the check in on line and leave my house number if something come up but no one have called...
She flew on 1st class by the way
Please let me know if something happened
I will be landing at 1:50 pm from dubai and have a flight to catch in terminal 3 delta at 3:35 pm
A is that enough time
B what is the easiest way to get to terminal 3
C do I need to haul the bags after custom clearence
i am us citizen
a) You will have plenty of time.
b) Use the AirTrain conveniently located outside of Terminal 4 to get to Terminal 3
c) you will pass immigration and customs at Terminal 4; you may need to re-check bags with Delta at terminal 3. I'm not sure.
Safe travels!
Hi, my friend come first time to New York and will arrive ate terminal 4 and she wants to know how far is the immigration aerea from the babagge aerea?? Is far way? She can get lost? And how far is form the bagagge aerea to the customs? Thanks..This information will be very helpful for her.
From the gate you will proceed directly to the immigration counter to show passport, I-94 and other related documents and then to the baggage area and then through customs. She may have a bit of a walk from the gate to customs/immigration but after that everything is close.
I read my young son's intl flight arrives at T4. We drove in from DC just to pick him up.
Is there a common T4 area where all arrival exit after passport and customs control so we don't miss him?
Thanks in advance
Hi, I'll be flying to JFK Airport Terminal 4 from Dominican Republic and will stay for 4 hours at JFK Airport to wait for my next flight to London (Gulf Air Airlines). My final destination is Qatar. Do I need to have a transit visa for my 4 hrs. stay at JFK Airport? Thanks for the info.
My daughter is arriving at JFK terminal 4 from St. Maarten on a tight schedule. After going through customs, the website says to "recheck baggage at a Jet Blue transfer station". Where is that "transfer station" located for Jet Blue? Is it before the 2nd officer, who checks your stamped forms?

Good morning,
I was wondering what would be the quickest way from JFK to Brooklyn, a taxi or via subway ?. I realise the subway will be a lot cheaper but was after the quickest.

JFK to BK via train is about 45-60 mins depending on where in BK... Expect 25-45 mins driving BUT if you hit traffic it could take up to 90 mins. Know what youre in for go subway.
Hi,
I'm travelling from ATL to HYDERABAD and have a Emirates connecting flight from JFK. I land in Terminal 2 and need to take the emirates flight from Terminal 4. Is there another security check between Terminal 2 and Terminal 4.
If i need to take a boarding pass for my Emirates flights, is there any KIOSK near terminal 2 or Terminal 4.
Dear JFK specialist,
My wife, daughter amnd myslef will be arriving on Saturday from London with BA at terminal 7, while our 17 year old son will arrive 2 hours later from Amterdam with KLM at terminal 4, and we would like to agree on a meeting point at terminal 4, if possible before the passport control in case our son has some problem due to arriving alone. Do we have to wait for him at the arrival hall or is there a better way to avoid problems at the passport control?
Best regards,
Anders
Hi Anders, In my opinion, after you get off your flight from London, You should meet your son at the International Arrivals hall at Terminal 4. I don't think there will be much of a problem as long as yours and his flight is on time. Just the Arrivals board in Terminal 4.
Glad to help!
We are leaving toronto and arriving at LaGuardia @ 7PM Leaving JFK #4 @ 10:50 for Abu Dhabi, our Daughter is @ NYU there, we are a bit worried about the transfer time.

Hello JFK Specialist!
I will fly to LA through NY in the next June. I'll come from Budapest, Hungary, and I have to wait 5h 20 min the next flight. My question is: should I try to get NYC and see something, or I should wait in the JFK? I'm from Hungary!
Five hours is not enough time to leave the airport for sightseeing, stay at the airport between flights.

Given the zip code you provided that would be midtown around 34th St. Do you have an exact address? Take AirTrain on track 1 from terminal to Jamaica Station, transfer to inbound E subway, at Forest Hills, Jackson Heights or Queens Plaza transfer to the inbound R subway to 34th St. You will be one short block to 6th Ave.

I have my flight from Jacksonville to India through JFK. My JetBlue flight from Jacksonville reaches JFK terminal 4 at 9:20 PM. My connecting flight to Dubai through Emirates is at 11:00 PM from Terminal 5.
Is the transit time of 1 hour 40 minute sufficient to transfer the baggage?
What's the minimum time required to transfer the baggage from JetBlue to Emirates flight?
Thanks.
