History - Construction of the airport began in 1942 with modest ambitions. Only 1,000 acres (4 km²) of land on the site of Idlewild golf course were earmarked for use. The golf course provided the airport's original namesake, Idlewild Airport. First commercial flights began on July 1, 1948. The airport was formally dedicated as New York International Airport on July 31, 1948. It was re-dedicated on December 24, 1963 as John F. Kennedy International Airport, following action of the Mayor and Council of the City of New York, and a resolution of the Commissioners of the Port Authority. After the September 11, 2001 attacks, JFK was one of the first airports in the United States to be temporarily closed.

My mother will be arriving to JFK via Finnair from Finland. She does not speak English. Does the airport have a service - fee or non-fee - that would cover someone meeting her at the gate, walk through customs and take her to her connecting flight to Atlanta?
yes.there is a volunteer group of travelers assistance at teh ground transportation or research them at Travellers aid. not sure they can meet her before immigration/customs, they will confirm
