Hi,
I am arriving JFK terminal 3 in canadian airlines and need to transfer to Terminal 4 singapore airlines. I am travelling with wife and baby. Is 2 hours sufficient to transfer luggage and move between terminals?
Bha
Can we find luggage carts in all car rental companies at JFK? Is there a charge to use those carts?
Check-in for Emirates usually starts 3.5 hours prior to departures.

Hi
I am arriving from Toronto by Delta 6418 and landing in JFK terminal 3 at 1923.
I have a connection at 2230 from JFK terminal 4 to London.
I will be carrying 2 suitcases.
Will I have enough time to clear customs/immigration and catch my connection?
Also would it be possible to check my luggage all the way through from Toronto to London?
Thanks & regards
No need to clear customs and immigration when you are arriving from Toronto(the flight is pre-cleared there).
You have plenty of time to transfer.
Check with Delta in Toronto if the will be able to check your bags all the way through.

Hi ,
My wife and kids are arriving into T4 by Air India @ 7 AM . They have connection flight to Washington DC @ 10 AM .
They need to clear Adavance Parol section for Immigration which is a different section wich normally is close to the regular immigration section. The question is whether they need to take the luggage and transfer to United Airlines before they go for AP Immigration or they have to take the luggage with them while they wait for AP clearance ?
Also, how long does it take to transfer from T4 to Uninted airlines local transfer terminal ?
Is 3 hrs good enough ?
Thanks !
where is the trans-bridge pickup at terminal 4 --WHERE- LOCATION Please
In front of the terminal, 1st floor. There is a sign there as well for TransBridge bus.

I would like to book the following flights. Arrival in JFK with KLM from Amsterdam at 19:40 and departing from JFK to Washington (DCA) with Delta at 21:05 from different terminal.
Please advise me whether I would have enough time to catch the Delta plane. I will be traveling with a hand luggage only.
Thanks in advance,
With hand luggage only you should be fine. Make sure you get the boarding pass for your flight to DCA from KLM in AMS.
Hi. I am arriving at terminal 4 at 5:40 am EL AL from Tel Aviv transfering to AA flight to Montreal from terminal 8 - two hours later.
Do I have enough time?
Do I need to take my luggage and recheck at terminal 8?
What is the best way to reach terminal 8 fron terminal 4 ?
thanks
You have time - take Airtrain on the third floor , on any track , to T8.
You have to re-check your bags either at El Al connecting flights counter at T4 or at AA check-in counters at T8.

I am arriving T2, tehn collect baggages and get to T4 for international flight. Can I rent a baggage cart at T2 and take AirTrain to T4?
Yes, you can do that - baggage carts are available at the vending machines throughout every terminal. It costs $5(nonrefundable) to get one and they are permitted on the Airtrain.

I am traveling from India to Los Angeles with a stop over at JFK. My question is will I have to re-check in my bags at JFK? I am also carrying an additional bag other than the usually allowed two bags. How do I pay for it when I arrive to the US? Your help is very much appreciated in advance.
You have to pick up your bags at JFK, go through US customs and then re-check them in.
Some of the US carriers(if not all of them) will not allow you to carry a third bag on the plane. You may have to check that bag in at the check-in counter of the airline that will fly you over to LAX.

I'm flying IND to JFK to CAI - will I need to pick up my luggage in JFK after my IND and then re-check luggage at JFK? Or will it get automatically transfered? My IND to JFK flight is with Delta and JFK to CAI is EgyptAir.
Is there a baggage transfer counter for Jet Blue at terminal 4 after customs?
Yes, there is , even they do only baggage transfer between their own flights and two or three more airlines(due to the fact that Jet Blue does have baggage transfer agreement with only two or three other airlines).

Friends are arriving at ~11AM in Terminal 4. I am a US Citizen wanting to meet them in a convenient place.
1.) Is there a convenient place for them to meet me (I've never been to JFK before either) at JKF once they clear Immigration in Terminal 4? They have no checked luggage, just a backpack carry-on luggage each.
2.) Since I'm not flying, just meeting them there, where should I wait to meet them outside the gates? Is there a large statue or something easy-to-find that you suggest?
Best wishes,
L
Hello,
I have two non-english speaking guests arriving to JFK terminal 8 via Swiss Air on August 19. They are very nervous to be able to find there way through the airport to connecting flight at terminal 8. Is there a person who might be able to meet them upon arrival at the gate? I know that you are very busyalso, and so if this is not possible to do, can you direct me to a service for a fee that might also be available from a private service at the airport?
Thank you,
David D. Belanich
Looks like "go to 1st floor and meet by international arrivals exit" is the best advice."
Is this the best advice?
hi...my friend is coming in jet airways to jfk on aug 13 and he will land at 12:15 pm to terminal 8...Iam also coming on aug 13 to jfk in Emirates and i will be landing at 1:30 pm at terminal 4..now can u tell us how can he meet me at terminal 4 after he completes his immigration so that he can wait for me at terminal 4...
Let him take Airtrain on track 2 to Terminal 4. There, he will go to the 1st floor and meet you by international arrivals exit.

MY elderly parents have a flight from JFK to Dubai via Emirates. Is there curbside checking? Is there assistance for elderly people so they dont have to take the luggage all the way to the counter?
There is no curbside check-in for Emirates. You can order(at Emirates counter at T4) a wheelchair assistance.

I will arrive at JFK at 3.30 in the afternoon of 5th August from DFW by US airways (Probably at Terminal 7) and want to go Terminal 4 to see my sister off by Pakistan International which will leave at 8 pm on 5th August. My return flight is at 6.30 the same US airways probaly from terminal 7. My question is how much time will it takes to reach Terminal 4 at Pakistan International counter and what is most time way to reach. Will i be able to come back to get flight at terminal 7 during this time.
Plesae help.

After you arrive at T7 make sure you will get your boarding pass for the flight back - this way you will not waste time coming back.
You will be able to do that - take Airtrain on track 2 from T7. It takes only two stops(~3min) to get to T4. On your way back make sure you are 1 hour prior to departure time at T7(assuming no bags to check in and in possession of boarding pass).
PIA counter at T4 is located on the forth floor.

Elderly parents are traveling from India (AI 101) and will arrive to JFK 6am 29 July, my father had surgery recently can not walk need assistance. I have booked tickets for wheel chair assistance, I could not connect to human attendant on Air India Terminal 4 number listed here (212) 751-6200. How may I get confirmation my parents will get wheel chair assistance and language (communication) help during luggage pick and immigration etc. Is there any number I can contact in terminal 4 for help? Thanks,
I will be flying from London to JFK on Virgin Atlantic. My connecting flight is at 4am on TACA.
Based on prior bad experience I really need to know if I will be able to re-check my luggage after immigration/customs or not.
I look forward to a definitive answer, Virgin is not able to provide that.
Thanks!!!
The problem last time was with Lufthansa, that they would not take any luggage for re-check if the connecting flight departed after midnight.
Is this a general rule or does it depend on the airline?
Thanks for your prior answer.
It depends on the airline - the big ones(or at least the ones with 24 hours presence at JFK) have resources and logistics to transfer even to overnight connections.
Is it possible to get the emirates phone number at the check in counter please?? Cab I get in touch with them some way?
Hi,
I have to register my exit at a port of entry/departure, there's an office at Terminal 4 room 161/011, based on what I've found, but my departure to Montreal,Canada is from Terminal 8. What is the process and approximately how much time do I need to consider for this?
Thanks
