Elango - You will have to do immigration at JFK, take your luggage out and clear customs check. Only then you can check-in again for American. But you can get the luggage tag all the way to Washington when you check-in at Jet Airways, make sure it is attached to the luggage. Then you can transfer the luggage from the AA counter, usually they have one right after customs. If you don't have the tag all the way to Washington, you will have to take the luggage yourself to AA terminal and check-in. Either ways, you will have to do immigration at JFK.
On April 2 I will be taking AA flight from Miami to JFK and another AA flight from JFK to Barcelona. There is only one hour in between flights. Are both those flights in the same terminal since one is domestic and the othere international? Is it at all possible to make the connection in one hour.

Hi, I have two questions:
1. Is this information about terminal 8 correct? are the airlines listed really the airlines operating to/from this terminal? have seen some comments that suggest that information about some of the terminals is old and outdated.
2. Is 1h 30min enough time to transfer between two different airlines on two separate tickets, but within the same terminal?
Hi there, i would like to ask what is the procedure is you have a connecting flight in JFK, but you do not have the boarding pass for the flight, because the airline is not code-share one, and someone, somehow must check you in order to procced to the gate. You can not just check you in by yourself because you do not have the documents for the US Custom, so the only chance must be the Transit check-in that only some of the EURO ports have, as far as i know. Does the JFK have it as well?
2hrs is enough to change a flight even though u need to get to another terminal.
i wll be arriving jfk terminal 4 by Qatar airways.and for my next flight only 2hrs duration is thr.if i miss my next fliht.then what is the procedure for getting next one?
I will be arriving at Terminal4 by Qatar Airways international flight.I have my connecting flight from Terminal8 American Airlines to dallas.I will be travelling for the first time so please tell me how should I go from term4 to 8 in 2 hrs time?I will have immigration & collection of luggage too.Please help!
Here is what u shud do...
--> Once you get out from the plane, spend very less time refreshing and head to the immigration as the queue could very long.
--> Once you complete the immigration head to the baggage carousel and head to the customs.
--> After clearing customs head to your airlines (Qatar airways in ur case) and hand over your luggage for check in. They will check in for your flight to Dallas.
--> Head to the upper level for the air train and that will take you to terminal 8. This is the fastest. You have a airtrain every 4 mins i Guess.
--> Remember you just have 2 hours so you make it as fast as possible.
Im arriving from Helsinki at 18:50, could i be on time for flight to LA at 20:45 at the same terminal 8?
Hi everyone,
do you know if there are some plugs for laptop in this terminal?
Hi
We are coming in at terminal 8, two persons are meeting us.
We are all from Seattle and doesn't know the airport facilities. We are all 4 going w/ shuttle to Farmingdale. Where is the best meeting place. Arriving with AA.
The A train is REALLY slow. I think you can take the Long Island Railroad (LIRR) from the same station as the A train (different area of the station) and it's half the time for a few more dollars. Worth it.
Could anyone plz inform me how to get Port Authority Terminal from JFK Airport?
Thanks so much.
If you want to save money, take the AirTrain to Howard Beach station, then take the A train (subway) to Manhattan. Get off at 42nd street/Port Authority Bus Terminal. It takes about 1 hour and 15 minutes. The cost is $7 ($5 for the AirTrain, $2 for the subway).
If you are wondering about the quickest way to change terminals: use the AirTrain. It is free.
If you are wondering about minimum connection time: call your airline and ask.
Am arriving in Termina 8 and need to take a connecting flight at Terminal 7 within one a half hours. What is the quickest way to transfer from 7 to 8? pls advise.

Does he require a transit visa.?
What is the best way to go from one terminal to another?
what is the fare charge for air train?
I happen to read your comment and I have the similar question. I am travelling to JFK in March and then transfering to Term 8 with about 3.40 hrs in between to take emirates airlines. I do have a visa to states. So is it easy to find the airtrain station. I am travelling with a baby as well and was wondering if I need to get out of the airport to take the train. The reason I was wondering that if I need to take winter jackets for me and baby. Also I am really stressed on finding the right airtrain and how to find the station etc. Also I hear when i return to Canada I have to check out and check in again at JFK, how do I do that when changing terminals. Would you happen to know.
I will arrive from Tampa to JFK at 8:00pm, but I do not know, what terminal or gate.
I will leave from JFK with flight LH405 at 9:35pm ( I think it is terminal 8, but I am not sure!)
My question: Time for changing the planes is only 1 and a half hour. Is it possible?
I've heard that there are no shops in terminal 8, is it true? Hard to belive, because in Helsinki Airport there are shops everywear...
