I'm looking at a flight on
I'm looking at a flight on April 14th that flies from SYR to JFK through Jet Blue and arrives at 8:31PM. My connecting flight is also through Jet Blue but leaves only 38mins later at 9:09PM. Will I be kept in the same terminal? Is that enough time to get from one gate to another?
All Jet Blue flights come
All Jet Blue flights come from terminal 5. In my opinion that is not enough time to reconnect unless you are lucky and the second flight is delayed by at least an hour which I hope it is in your case. Regardless you will have to recheck your bags and go through security all over again at JFK. Hope that helps.
You should be able to make
You should be able to make it - Jet Blue from SYR arrives at T5 and all their departing flights are from T5 as well. Jet Blue will check all your bags through your final destination so there is no need to pick them up at JFK. No need to exit the sterile area and clear security again - as long as you have your boarding pass for your second flight just look for the gate.
You will make it for sure.
You will make it for sure. Just use free air train.

Security
Does every passenger flying from terminal 5 now have to go through the new body scanners, or pat downs? If so, how much time should one allow to get through security? Has the time increased?
Generally passengers are
Generally passengers are selected for the AIT scanner at random. You only get the full body pat down if you refuse the AIT scan. Best advice is to accept the body scan if selected, it only take 30 seconds, and you'll be on your way. Waits to clear security will increase if there are many people refusing the scans because the pat downs take much longer than the scan. Hopefully travelers will follow procedures regarding liquids and follow instructions to keep things moving to ensure everyone is properly screened as quickly as possible.
