Hello,

I am flying with a service dog from BCN to Los Angeles. We will land in JFK (Terminal 8) at 15.30 and our next flight is at 16.45. Is there an area where I could let my dog toilet?

Many thanks for your help.

Kindest regards,

Hello,
I'm flying from Toronto through Terminal 8 at JFK to LAX and then on to Shanghai. I arrive at JFK at 8am and leave for LAX a 1030am. Will I need to go through Customs and recheck luggage? Or can I just go through as I'm just transiting through the U.S.? Thanks!

I have a client flying CUN-JFK on AA, connecting to an El Al flight that leaves at 1150pm. I can get him to JFK a 950pm and I see that minimum connecting time I-I is 1:15. Is there anything else I should think about? He shouldn't have to do immigration & customs if he's just connecting, should he?

Cat Jack was lost in JFK airport in NYC on Aug 25th.
He disappeared from the baggage area at JFK Terminal 8 at approx. 6:00 pm where he was supposed to be shipped along with his mate on AmericanAirlines flight 1779.

The supervisor for the inbound baggage area is Anthony Gallo.
...the tags for the cats and the bags were as followed

AA 60 11 93 (cat)
AA 60 11 94 (cat)
AA 60 11 98 (bag)
AA 60 11 99 (bag)

HOW YOU CAN HELP:
Do you know someone who works for American Airlines?
Do you know someone who works at JFK?
-> please bring this case to their attention

Will you fly through JFK and/or be at the American terminal??
-> inquire about the case to get AA to respond

Call AA at JFK
-> lost & found 718-487 5501
-> security 718-6564333

General #
-> American AA (800) 433-7300

Got other ideas?? fabulous!
-> post them to these links
