3) Where the express bus counter located? Pay by cash?
4) How much l much allocate to check-in at LGA, as l'm a foreigner?
Thank you.

TRANSIT

My family and I are travelling to South America this year via JFK, unfortunately on the way back we have a 9 hour stop-over are we allowed to exit the airport and book back in time for our flights? We have family in NY.

Distance between terminals

How long does it take between terminal 4 and terminal 7?

The AirTrain runs between

The AirTrain runs between 5-10 mins. It takes no more than 3 mins to arrive to the next immediate terminal but you must consider the walk from the AirTrain to the check-in counters or to the security screening area. So if you are connecting to another flight I would be a bit more concerned about the security line than the AirTrain. In addition you can not walk from terminal 4 to terminal 7.

Were to wait after arriving at terminal 4

Hi,

I am arriving terminal 4, flight lands at 4:00 AM . Friends are coming to pick me up but they may only get there around 6:00-7:00 Am. Where can I stay at terminal 4 ? is there a simple way to get from arrival section to a place were most shops/Cafe are located ? I saw on the terminal plan there is only 1 Cafe Au Bon Pan in the arrival section - is it open in 4:00 AM. TIA

Nothing will be opened at

Nothing will be opened at this time.The first location with chairs you find after you get your lugagge,sit down and relax. Stay inside the airport,there is nothing outside.Good luck.

how to move from T 4 to T5 fast?

I will be arriving at T5 by Emirates airlines at 14:15 and I have a connection flight by jet blue on T5 departure at 05:00 PM...

1) how to get from T 4 to T 5?

2) is 2 hours enough to finish the immigration procedures , collect luggage , move to and check in at T5?

3) or would you recommend taking a later flight and give my self more time ?

Thank you very much for your time;)

Reply to your inquiry

To get from T4 to T5 you would take the Airtrain, which is free and circles the entire airport. Once you come through customs and are at the arrival area, you will see signs for the Airtrain that you can't miss. The Airtrain travels in both directions, just be sure to travel in the direction to T5, otherwise you will have a tour of the entire airport! It generally takes about 15 minutes for a full circle of JFK. Once on the Airtrain, actual travel between neighboring terminals is only about 5 minutes, but you have to wait for it, and the number of passengers means you may have to wait for the next car to arrive.

It generally takes about 1 1/2 to 2 hours from the time you airplane hits the ground to the time you are at arrivals, but this greatly depends on such factors as weather and whether you are traveling at peak times. It also greatly depends upon which line through customs you use (i.e. US Citizens move far quicker than foreigners). If you are a foreign national, I would give yourself at least 3 hours for your connection flight. But if you are a citizen, you should have enough time with your current schedule, but if not, give yourself more time to be safe.

anybody knows how much the

anybody knows how much the trolleys are for?

Between Terminals

We arrive on Etihad airways (Terminal 4?) and connect to Delta (Terminal 3). My husband is in a wheelchair and unable to stand/walk. Thus we are unable to take bus/train etc. Can we push the wheelchair between terminals ? We also have a mountain of baggage - how far ? are there baggage carts ?
Thank you
