reaching jfk from india on 30th of oct at 2.30pm and connecting flight to san diego at 4.45 pm is there enough time to finish immigration and customs to catch the connecting flight on time ??????

man eat some thing at the airport , these days domestic flights are not giving any free meals, though some will give and if its a non stop flight dont worry they will give some food. u may have time for customs dont worry. the airlines will take care if u are delayed.

Yes it usually takes about one to two hours....

Just walk fast when you get out of the plane in JFK...

Most people walk slow and there is 10 minute walk...

That makes a difference

I am flying into JFK on Sept. 20th. I need to get to Newark New Jersey. How do I get there using subway/rail??

please i want know how i travel to connecticut state (hart ford) by train and also how much does it cost
thanks

Take AirTrain to Jamaica Station. that should be free. Take Subway to Grand Central. That should be $2. Get on New Haven Bound train (metro north) That i think is at least $20 but depends on if you travel during peak times. From this point on, i'm not too sure. I believe Amtrak stops at the New Haven station but i don't know if it stops in Hartford. Hope that helps!

metro north only goes as far as new haven. there is an amtrak train that goes from new haven to hartford, but only a few times a day, so check the schedules. It's probably easiest to take amtrak directly from new york - also becuase metro north leaves from grand central while amtrak leaves from Penn station, and the trains you would get from JFK (A, E, or LIRR) all go to Penn station and not grand central.

what is the best way to get from JFK (terminal 7, arriving from London) to New Brunswick, NJ?

from jfk enter the city sub way to new york penn station, there catch the nj transit train to new brunswick.

I AM LEAVING OUT OF JFK ON DELTA FROM NEW YORK TO CHARLOTTE WOULD YOU KNOW TERMINAL I WOULD GET OFF ON TRAIN THANKS

Boston to New York. You can take the train AMTRAK from South Station Boston ($90.00?) to NY Penn Station. From there you can take the LIRR (Long Island Railroad) to Jamaica Station, pick up the AirTrain to JFK and your airline. Total cost per person is about $125.00 but you should allow 6 hours.

We have a flight from newyork jfk but we have to go from boston massachusetts to newyork to catch taht flight the rent a car option and a connecting flight option from boston to ny jfk is very expensive how can i get to newyork jfk airport is there any cheap way to get there from boston massachusetts

bus is the cheapest way , check out china town buses, mega bus or grey hound.

What is the best way to get to JFK Airport from Port Authority (Greyhound Bus station). And then to the terminal 8 ?
