I had to check in a bag at the departure gate for DL 173 on August 16, 2010. I had taken this bag on flights many times and no one ever said anything. According to the ground crew's instructions, I checked it in at the gate and removed everything valuable I could find -- except a gold necklace -- that I had forgotted was in the bag. And you guessed it, when I arrived at my destination in Taipei it was gone. Someone along the way had ripped open the box and stolen it. In addition, the memory card for my son's new PSP was stolen right out of my luggage that was checked in at curbside.
I HAVE NEVER HAD THESE PROBLEMS BEFORE. WHAT IS GOING ON? IS THE PROBLEM AT JFK OR ALONG THE ROUTE?

Hi! I have a question. I am flying from Istanbul to New York and then to Chicago. But they are not connected. They are separate flights so I will have to get my baggage while changing flights. Will I also have to go through passport control in New York? I am worried I might not make it on time then. There are three hours between flights.
P.S.I am not an American citizen.

Im arriving with a plane from Copenhagen (Denmark) a friday 05.20 pm and have a connecting flight there leaves to San Diego 07.10 pm. Is it possible to do that?
Both flights is Delta flights but the tickets is independent purchased. what is the rules if i not catch my connecting flight?

You should be able to make the transfer as long as Copenhagen flight is not delayed. If the tickets are purchased separately and you miss your flight then you have to pay late(reschedule) fee which is between $100-$200.

I will be flying from Turkey into JFK on thurdays, I am actually heading to cambridge,NY.I need directions and transport infos please,all advise will be duely appreciated.

Hi, please can someone help us out here. My daughter is traveling back to the UK from Buenos Aires on an emergency passport. Her passport, credit cards, wallet, cash, everything was stolen when she was in Peru.
She had a return flight booked with Mexicano Airlines who have just gone bust and canceled her flight, but they have just told her they have arranged an alternative one that entails a transit change at JFK. Reading up the rules it seems she can't transit thru' JFK on an emergency passport without a visa, and the US embassy in London shut 3 hours ago and won't open until Monday, which is too late as that's when her flight is. Is there a way out of this?

Dear Sir/Madam,
I was taking a connection flight from San Francisco to New York on Friday 13th of August and it came to my considerable shock to find out that my luggage lock (TSA APPROVED)was broken and my LOUIS VUITTON "NEVERFULL MODEL" handbag was stolen from inside the luggage!!. I would really appreciate ur effort if you take the necessary actions and keep me updated..

I will be arriving to JKF from Detroit at 11:58 AM (DL6268) and my flight to Brazil is going to be 09:45 PM (DL0121). As I will have a couple of hours I have planned spend sometime walking around the city. So, I would like to know if it is allowed and if I do need to do something specifically. Thank you very much!

My daughter just flew into JFK tonight 8-12-2010 from SF, CA. She was scammed by a town car driver she thought was a taxi! He drove her to the middle of nowhere and demanded money and dumped her and her bags at a gas station and took $100.00! I am not happy and am hoping there is a way to monitor this so it doesn't happen to someone elses daughter. She was scarred and he yelled at her and left her. Lucky for her a nice couple was there and helped her.

Hy ,

my mother will arrive to the JFK and needs to get to New Jersey or Prinston. Is there in way of doing it buy bus, car or whatever without having to go to the Penn Station. A direct transportation JFK - Prinston or JFK- New ( or North ) Brunswik ?
Thank you.

No direct bus or train from JFK to Princeton. All NJ Transit trains depart from Penn Station and NJ Transit buses depart from Port Authority Bus Terminal. She could inquire about the Super Shuttle, a shared-ride shuttle at the Ground Transportation counter when she arrives. There are shuttle buses from terminal and Airtrain/subway or LIRR from Jamaica Station to Penn Station and Port Authority.

My son has arrived at JFK on 11august from Bangalore.he has not contacted us till now.he will be joining Cornell for undergraduate studies. Am worried sick,how can I trace him
