Does anyone knows if the JetBlue terminal or the others have specific places for breastfeeding? Thank You.

Can anyone tell me if 3 and a half hours between flights in JFK is sufficient. Bags to be rechecked, and second flight leaves from a different terminal. Both flights are international.

the airlines gate closes after the airline makes sure the passenger hasnt checked in yet. But if u do check in the flight wont leave. the bags to be rechecked n waiting online usually takes 1 hour

what airlines travel from new york, los angeles and atlanta to the U.K??????

My wife and kids will be flying on Delta arriving from Boston on 31 Dec around 6 pm to join SQ0025 for Singapore on the same day at 9pm. Can the bags be checked straight through from Boston so they wont have to take them out and re-check in again at JFK?

As far as I know, you can check in the baggages at Boston, through Delta and continue ur flight from the intermediary airport without having to check your baggage out again. But it would depend on Delta ground staff. I had flown from New York to Auckland via LA, and checked in my baggage at New York. I didn't have to collect my baggage at LA. However, my flight from LA to Auckland was booked through Qantas and from new York to LA ws through AA. They (Qantas) had a tie up with the AA. Best option is to ask Delta directly whether they would be willing.

Yes you can. Inform the Delta ground staff that you are checking the baggage all the way through. It might happen that Delta might not be interested. I have been however fortunate, with AA agreeing to forward the luggage.

What are the baggage restrictions on a return journey to and from the UK ?

In reply to by Luke (not verified)

Generally the free allowance to and from the UK is 2 pieces each person, each piece not weighing more than 20kg/50lb. As the poster above says, check with your airline, if you have a ticket booked already, the details will be on your itinerary.

Can you get a limo from jfk to hotel in manhatten or have you to prebook one?

My 66 year old husband will be waiting for a connecting flight for 6 hours, after midnight. Is there somewhere he can safely rest during this time?

In reply to by Taylor (not verified)

There are a bunch of hotels near JFK and if your husband will choose to wait at the terminal, I'm sure it is safe there even at nights.

I flew in Saturday night from London (vacation). I went through Immigration with such speed only to be held up at the baggage claim area for 30-40 mins waiting for my luggage. Also, I think JFK could take a few lesson from Heathrow. The luggage trolleys at Heathrow are FREE - I know, that word is unheard of here in NYC. To think we have to pay $3 to take a trolley - i feel it is so 'tourist unfriendly' - I actually cringe when I see tourists trying to grab a trolley only to be told they must pay - you can see the question look in their eyes.
