This Sunday, I have a 6am flight to San Francisco(SFO). I live outside of NYC, and I have only one option to get to JFK by paying $149.00 for a cab ride to JFK. Instead, I'm thinking of getting to JFK Saturday at midnight from NYC, cab ride from Grand Central for $60.00, and just hanging out at the airport for my flight. Are there waiting areas that late at the Delta Airlines Terminal? Or, any other suggestions? I'm trying to avoid the $149.00 cab fee. I wish there was a later flight to SFO, but there isn't :((((

Why not take the subway to JFK and then only a $5 for the airtrain? You can take the E from just north of grand central to Jamaica and then the air train from there. It's less than $10

Or if you have access to the A train, get on the Far Rockaway "A" and get off at Howard Beach Air Train station. Very very convenient and the whole thing will only cost you the price of the subway and $5 for the Air Train. Info on the MTA site.

You can sit in some chairs until you can check in at 430AM. I did that same thing this weekend.

No. You would have to get into Manhattan by bus, subway, or railroad, and get a bus from there. Discount bus service between Manhattan and Boston is available from megabus.com, and from boltbus.com. Greyhound also serves the route, as does Amtrak, if you prefer to go by train.

Good morning,

I am Brazilian and I intend to visit New York in December with my 11 year old son and would like to know if there is any requirement (in addition to visa and passport) for the return with my child, since the father did not going to the trip to the usa.

For definitive advice on this matter, you should contact any U.S. consulate (or the U.S. embassy) in Brazil.

Uma viagem com filhos a qualquer parte do mundo exige onde somente um dos pais os acompanha, uma autorização de viagem preenchida pela outra parte. Devem constar nome, endereço, documentação (CPF/RG), data de validade do documento (período de permanência fora do país), nome da criança e a assinatura deve ser reconhecida em cartório por semelhança (a própria pessoa é quem deve reconhecer firma). Isso deve ser feito em duas vias e conter foto do menor. Uma via ficará retida na PF no aeroporto e a outra deverá ser mantida durante a viagem. As agências de turismo dispõem desse formulário e, se não me engano, o site da PF tb.

Hi
I'm arriving at the long term parking lot at 5am. Will the shuttle/tram be running at that time to take me to the terminal? Thanks.

Does all terminals have telephone booths? And how can I use them? Do I have to use american coins, or can I use my credit card?
And. If I have to use coins, what is the best way to get those at the airport (terminal 7).

All terminals have phone booths which you can use. They take credit cards and american coins. Go to any store and they should be able to exchange dollars for quarters.

I am due to fly from JFK to lax Tuesday 30th august at 2pm with American airlines, will this flight still be flying?
