I arrive at JFK at 8pm and my connecting flight is 5.45am the next day. Can I leave the airport to stay in a hotel or am I forced to stay in the terminal?
Thanks

I had the same situation last year. You actually can't go to your gate for your morning flight until that morning, so I would recommend finding a hotel. JFK is kind of far from the city, so be sure to allot plenty of time to get back though.

I traveled with mom from YYZ to JFK because she was sick. at JFK the plan was to meet my brother who flew in at the same time to meet mom so as to take care of her on their way terminal 4 to fly home. We requested for special services for mom (wheelchair). When we arrived to JFK i had to assist mom to get off the plane and walk with her toward the wheelchair which was parked inside the tunnel and not by the plane stairs. We were OK with that, mom went on the wheelchair, the lady pushed her and instead of telling us, in a nice way, where to go she started yelling at us as if we were the experts. I explained everything to this lady about the meeting with my brother and how important that is for us. So instead of helping us she rushed us out of the airport saying that the taxi will arrive soon and if mom misses it, the next one will take forever to come. So she pushed mom outside terminal 3 leaving her at the sidewalk, and instead of waiting with us, she went inside to keep herself warm and left mom outside in the cold with no supervision. then we waited for this taxi for at least one hour, I told her that i wanted to go see my brother. I went but came back coz the security did not allow me to go inside again. When i got there I found this lady yelling at mom, when i wanted to interfere, she told me to " Hush" which was so insulting. i told her to give me her name to put a complain in she refused. then she started talking to her friend about us which was not appropriate at all. That wasn't acceptable at all, it had been a very bad and painful experience for both my mom and myself.
i appreciate if you can address this issue.
We arrived by Delta airlines # 6736 on Nov. 20th, 2008.
Thanks

we are traveling nov. 27th on jet blue airways from portland maine to JFK airport could you tell me which terminal we will be getting off and which terminal we will need to reboard. we have about a 1/2 hour lay over. if there is a map could you please send it to me.

thank you,
anita

Jet Blue has its own terminal now. I believe it's terminal 5. You don't need to switch terminals.

Outside of the AA terminal there will be a bus that will take you to terminal 1. The bus runs every few minutes so you will not have any problems getting from one terminal to the other.

Dear Sir or Madame,

I'll be arriving at JFK at 11:05 by AA4740 on 22, and will transfer to CA982 of 15:30. Please tell me which terminal should I go for CA982(airchina),and how to get there?

Many thanks,

George

I am arrinvg on UA (T7) and transfering to Emirates (T4). I have 2 hours from landing to departing, as I am on one ticket, I hope to check my bags in all the way. Will I have enough time - and secondly, during the transfer - will I pass a smoking area??

Can someone tell me which terminal Qatar Airways is in and the best way to transfer from LaGuardia to JFK?

qatar airways is in terminal 4 at jfk airport. The best way would be taking a shuttle or taking a cab.

I have to do a transfer between terminal 1 and terminal 3. How do I do that? Is there a shuttle service or any transportation for me to travel between the two terminals or is it close enuf to walk to? Thanks
