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.

Is there a train from Hoboken to JFK?

I was travelling with US Airways from Charlotte to New York on June 17 2009 and someone accidentally picked up my loggage. This individual destination was Iberia Spain. Last Sunday June 21, an employee (Sandy or Sandra)from American Airways (AA)called a friend of mine in Houston TX claiming they have my loggage at JFK airport(Jeep Brand loggage with a single red strip in the middle, no lock)
This Information was passed on to US Airways, but they are not doing anything about it. Hopefully it's not too much to ask, can someone check all the airline baggage center at JFK and see if any one of them have my loggage.
Thanks and God bless
