Hello there ,I need help getting ready for my trip iM leaving Feb,18 th in a delta flight , and coming back The 21st On a Usairways Flight ,, so my question is where can i/or should i park? and how do i get to the airport from where i should park?

Since you will be departing on U.S airways and those airlines arrive and depart from terminal 8 use long term terminal 8 parking lot for your own convenience.

I am one person travelling with three large bags. I must get from Terminal 5 to Terminal 4. Can I rent a luggage cart and take it on the air train? If so, how much time do I need?

You can rent a SmartCarte at the airport and take it on AirTrain JFK. Allow between 30-45 minutes for completing the transfer from T5 to T4.

what is the transit time from leferts parking to the terminals?

5 to 10 minutes at best.

My daughter and I will be landing at Cathay Pacific Terminal 7. I would appreciate a step by step instruction to reach Park Savoy Hotel - 158 w. 58 St. . We wish to have a real New York experience as this will never happen again for us. Please schedule for me, how we get to the air train, connect to subway for the Manhattan address. Thanks

Call airport officials please.

so, can anyone tell me what I need to do to get from Jet Blue JFK to PENN STATION? Is it easy? How much? what do I need to know to get from point A to point B?

Thank you

Is the Airtrain runnig this afternoon?

I sure hope so, this will be my first time using it.

The air train stopped 15 minutes ago just before the Track 1 and we haven't had information since 10 minutes ago. Can somebody tell us what is going on?

Google, MTA and NJ transit seem to be unable to find anything ... can anybody verify that the airtrain is running after all the snow we had here around NYC?

is not running.
