Hi dear JFK employee,

my flight on jetblue arrive JFK (Terminal 5) at 1:00pm from Buffalo and my international flight (China Estern) terminal 1 depart at 3:35pm. I am not US citizen, I have visitor Visa.

Please help me with answering the questions:
1- Do I have enough time to catch up my international flight?
2- Do I have to declare on the Immigration & Customs?
3- What is the fastest way to go from T5 to T1

Thank you

1 Yes you do have enough time
2 No you dont have to declare on the Immigration & Customs
3 Take an air train on the 3rd floor and you will be on terminal 1 in minutes. It is fast and easy.

My daughter has a 5 pm flight out of terminal 5. I have to be there by 3 i guess but where should I park if I don't want to leave her alone until she has to board? how much is parking???

You can park at Yellow parking lot(which is the parking lot closest to T5) The price is $6/1hour for a max of $33 for 24hours period.

Parking is very expensive and about 20 dollars per hour. You can leave your car in the parking lot and accompany your daughter's boarding

I have a 5:45 AM flight on Dec 10th. How early is the terminal open for check in ?

Show up by 3AM for check in

I have a group meeting in terminal 5 for a trip, I need a specific meeting location to give out - what is a good place for a large group (about 80 people) to meet inside the terminal? Preferably near check-in.

Hang out in the lobby

Does every passenger flying from terminal 5 now have to go through the new body scanners, or pat downs? If so, how much time should one allow to get through security? Has the time increased?

Generally passengers are selected for the AIT scanner at random. You only get the full body pat down if you refuse the AIT scan. Best advice is to accept the body scan if selected, it only take 30 seconds, and you'll be on your way. Waits to clear security will increase if there are many people refusing the scans because the pat downs take much longer than the scan. Hopefully travelers will follow procedures regarding liquids and follow instructions to keep things moving to ensure everyone is properly screened as quickly as possible.

are there duty free stores at terminal 5? if yes, at what time are they opened?

We arrive on a JetBlue flight at 5:20 am, which is really 3:20 am for us, the morning of our cruise. Ideally, we'd rather stay on the side with the food and plenty of seating, but we don't want to leave our baggage unattended at baggage claim which means we'll be passing the security check point and (to my knowledge) cannot return. Is there somewhere we can go on that side of security to burn a few hours in either Terminal 5 or another Terminal? I should mention we'll be traveling with some very tired children.

Terminal 4 is a place where you can go - there is a food court(It opens at 6am I believe) where you can stay and also retail area outside security.
