JFK Airport Terminal 1

I am am arriving into JFK in Terminal 4 and my next flight is in terminal one. Since I will be arriving from the UAE I will have to get my luggage and go back though customs to go to Gate 1? Will the customs be in Terminal 1 or do I go somewhere else? And by the map I am seeing it looks like the Terminals aren't connected so would there be a shuttle that I can take? Where would I catch the shuttle? This is my first time flying by myself and I only have a 3 hour layover so I want to make up I understand everything.
Thanks!
-Also is there a more detailed map of JFK anywhere?

My parents will arrive at JFK airport from an international flight by China Eastern Airlines, and then will fly to Atlanta by Delta. The tickets were bought seperately. I understand that their luggage need to be claimed and re-checked in after customs check. It seems that China Eastern Airlines is in Terminal 1 and Delta is in Terminal 3. Where are they going to check-in their Delta flights and check-in/drop the luggage? Somewhere just near the customs counter in the same terminal (1)? Or, in Terminal 3?
Thanks!!

Dear Sir/Madam,

I will be arriving from LAX T8 on a Saturday afternoon and have a flight taking off from Terminal 1, 2 hours after that. Knowing that I have to get my laggage back, go to T1, check-in , past customs and get to my gate.
Can you tell me approx, how long it usually takes to go from the exit gate at T8 to Lufthansa gates at T1?

Thanks,

Clem

Is there any meeting point between both terminals? How could I get there? It would be highly appreciated if you coud send a sketch. Thanks in advance.

Hi, I am very worried. My wife and my daughter will take the flight AT 201 of ROYAL AIR MAROC. The phone of my wife is switched off and I have not any news from them. Could you please help me to know if they already have finished the check-in.

Hello.
Where can I find a detailed scheme of the first terminal? I wonder how to go to the immigration authorities upon arrival. Where are they located? I won the green card and I fly with a change at JFK. I have only 2 hours between flights and I have to go through all the formalities and be on time at 3 terminal.

im traveling from Mexico to Germany with a stop in JFK. I arrive at terminal 1 n then my flight to Germany leaves from terminal 4. i always have really bad luck with my luggage no matter how many hours i have for the connection, i want to take it out and check in again then i might have better chances to actually get my bags in Germany. would this work? im tired of dealing with airlines n after such a lont trip to not have anything to wear for several days. plese help...
thank you.

Hello,

I'll travel in April from JFK terminal 1 to Rome with an Alitalia flight. I would like to know if there are duty frees for Estee Lauder and Clinique cosmetics located after the security checks at terminal 1. Thank you for the help. Best regards,

I will arrive at Terminal 1 with international fligth (Alitalia) at 2PM and I should take a Delta flight to Las Vegas at 4.30PM. Is 2 hours and a half enough to take the baggage, go through the customs for immigration, check in and drop the baggage again for the domestic flight?

Thank you!

Is 2 hours and 40 minutes enough to transfer between terminal 3 and 1? The flight arriving at terminal 3 is domestic, but i will need to claim luggage and the flight from terminal 1 is international. Any thoughts?? Thank you.

I want to travel as cheap as possible from JFK T1 next thursday (at around 5 pm), to Edison Hotel, 228 West 47th Street New York, NY 10036. I would like to know the cheapest way to get there by public transportation. Could someone please help me? Thank you very much in advance.
