At heathrow waiting for flight to JFK are you open for business?
My one and only recent experience of JFK was by far the worst i have ever had. Almost every single person that worked there had the worst attitude, the most un professional, lazy and rude people i have ever met and is clearly run by incompetent management, i will NEVER return. If i have to go to New York again i will land at another airport and drive in.
On Dec 27th 2010 after spending the night in what can only be described as a cold, disgusting dirty old airport, I and approx 40 other passengers had been waiting in line for over 2 hours outside Sbarro, waiting for it to open. It was at this time TSA officer EBEGBE walked straight to the front of the line. I along with a few other frustrated hungry passengers questioned her to which we received a very dismissive reply.
As soon as Sbarro opened she was quickly joined by TSA officer BROWN who rudely pushed her way to the front through the crowd. As a result of these poor excuse for security officers pushing their way to the front, everybody followed, creating unnecessary havoc and confrontation. Their immediate response was cussing at myself and a member of my party several times also telling us that they had been there for 24hours - WE HAD BEEN THERE FOR OVER 36 HOURS AND SOME MORE THAN A FEW DAYS!!! Ms BROWN was being extremely confrontational to my party member by entering into her personal space - within 1" of her face, accusing her of touching - which absolutely did not happen and she was clearly looking for a reason to escalate the situation. Both officers became incredibly confrontational, cussing and arguing with passengers. Their behaviour was indescribably unprofessional and im very surprised that it did not turn into something more serious. I would expect this from thugs on the street but certainly not from employees from JFK who are supposed to make passengers feel safe and secure from these very situations.
THEN, as it was time to go through the security check point, officer EBEGBE was operating the bag xray machine and stopped my bag asking it to be searched - even though it had already been through the previous day and absolutely nothing had changed and it was ok then, but she seemed to make a big big deal out of the contents of my bag displaying yet more unprofessional, immature and petty behaviour.
The most outrageous airport i have ever been too.
Hello,
I'm scheduled to fly out to Heathrow
on Virgin Atlantic Flight 10 tomorrow at 10:25 pm.
I wanted to book the shuttle to jfk tonight for tomorrow, but will the flight be canceled due to weather?
Hi there,
I am traveling from the Turks and Cacos in March and arrive at JFK on a Sunday at 5:35p flight 1016? We are booked to catch flight 1018? at 10:45p but there is one available at 6:35p. Will I have enough time (under normal circumstances) to get through customs and to the other flight in one hour? They may be on terminal 6 and terminal 5, not sure.
Thanks for your insight!
Also, is it faster through customs if you only have a carry on?
My bf has same problem. He should be in JFK tomorrow at 3:35pm and we don't know what is gonna happen after the storm :(
IMPORTANT! To all who are still missing baggage, we recently just went to the airport after being told by Lufthansa to sit home and wait. We saw our bags (and tons of others) just sitting in front of Lufthansa baggage tracking office. Absolutely ridiculous, considering we asked the phone operators if we should go to JFK, they told us a waste of time. So to anyone missing luggage I recommend going to the airport and looking for it there.
Hi - I flew on Air France from JFK on Dec 19. I still don't have my bags and I'm not due to leave Paris until March so going to JFK is not an option for me. Did you see bags from other airlines also or just Lufthansa?
Yes, we saw other airlines bags, not sure if it was AirFrance, there are diff terminals. There are tons of bags all over the terminal where lufthansa operates.
Does anyone know the situation where Delta's baggage is gathered? Are there lots of unclaimed bags still lingering. My bags were barcoded in to JFK on December 22nd but I still have yet to receive them. Based off the above accounts, I'm debating flying into JFK and searching myself. Does anyone have the number for the carrier that handles the Delta bags in JFK? Thanks
