we arrive at JFK at 2pm on 26th July and need to get to penn station via Jamaica station and heard there is construction on LIRR; what are my options?
Can you provide a link to
Can you provide a link to the information about construction on the LIRR? In the unlikely event that this construction causes a suspension of service between Jamaica and Penn Station, you can always take the "E" subway from Jamaica to Penn Station. The subway takes about 40 minutes and costs $2.25 per person if a Metrocard is used; or $2.50 if a single-ride ticket is used. The LIRR takes abot 20 minutes for the same trip, but costs $6.25 per person during off-peak times (trains arriving Penn Station weekdays after 10:00 AM).
The AirTrain costs $5.00 per person from JFK to Jamaica.

connections
Hi I'm flying AA from London to JFK connecting to American egals flight to Norfolk. Do I have to collect my baggage once I have cleared immigration or are they transfered on as it is a connecting flight? Also is it all in the one terminal?
On return I fly back BA - how do I get to Terminal 7 from 8.
You will have to clear both
You will have to clear both Customs and Immigration at JFK. After Immigration, you will collect your checked baggage and go through Customs. If the check-in agent at Heathrow has checked your baggage through to ORF, then just after clearing Customs at JFK, you should be able to drop your bags at the re-check station. All AA mainline and American Eagle flights use Terminal 8 at JFK.
On the return, AA should be able to check your bags all the way through to LHR, and you will not see them again until you claim them at LHR.
To get from Terminal 8 to Terminal 7 at JFK, you will take the "All Terminals" Air Train one stop. The ride is free, and should take all of two minutes. (Make sure that you board the correct AirTrain: do NOT board one bound for "Jamaica" or "Howard Beach.")
Thank you for the
