You have to see the sign: Foods and Shops. My flight departs at 7:00am too! (JFK-SDQ)

Hello!
We will fly with UA on sunday, May 23rd to LAS. The scheduled departure time is 7:00 a.m.
Where may we get a breakfast at the airport before take off?
Thanks for any advice.
J.M:

Terminal 7(UA) has a food court post security.

Hello - I'd be very grateful or advice on the process for collecting bags from an internal (T3) Delta flight and transferring to T7 for an international BA flight.

I believe there are 2 hours between landing and take off. I'll already have a boarding pass for the onward flight. Could you advise whether that is too tight and where you think the most likely hold-up might be - e.g. T3 baggage reclaim?

Many thanks

Check again with Delta if you have your bags automatically transfered to BA. If not , yes, you will be spending some time at Delta baggage claim waiting for your bags. Nevertheless , your time frame is enough to make the transfer.

Good morning!
We will fly with UA on May 23rd from JFK to LAS. My mom (71years) is still recovering from a painful shoulder surgery. She is not able to lift her right arm. Now she is concerned about not passing the security lane, may I assist her, since Iam a nurse and know how to move her so that every part of the body can be checked.
Thank you!

If you are flying with your mom, you have no problem assisting her. If you don't - ask United for temporary Gate pass for that purpose.

I will arrive in a Delta flight at 06:00 on Sunday and have an international flight with Delta at 18:30, so I have around 8 free hours to spend in New York. I am not american but already have a valid USA visa. My questions are:
1. Can I leave the airport when arrive and return 2.5 hours before the following flight?
2. Should I collect my luggage in JFK or is it possible to make Delta to register it until final destination?
Thank you in advance.

1. Yes, you can.
2. Check with Delta (even I doubt it they will check the bags that early)

hi,
i'm traveling to India with a 16months old child and i have 5 big luggage and i wanted to know how to go to the air india international terminal from the domestic baggage claim area. i'm actually flying from columbus,ohio to india .will i get any help from airport personnel in regarding to carrying luggages to the international terminals?

as i have a child i also have to carry baby food. i have plans to carry the vita D milk aseptic cartons which are 8oz each. i have to use this milk till i reach india and also during my day long stay in the airport.i'm not sure how much cartons can i carry in my hand luggage. can anybody help me in this regard?

.

You forgot to mention which airline is flying you into JFK from Columbus.
TSA rules for carrying baby formula are as follow:
"Medications, baby formula and food, and breast milk are allowed in reasonable quantities exceeding three ounces and are not required to be in the zip-top bag. Declare these items for inspection at the checkpoint."

i'm flying by united airlines from columbus,ohio.it arrives at jfk by 1.15pm.my air india flight is at 9.30pm.how early can i check-in my luggages? how long is the security check?will i get any assistance with my 5 big luggages b'cos i've to take them from the domestic to terminal 4..

i read the TSA rules, but i wanted to know how much 8oz aseptic cartons can i take in my hand luggage because i've to use that milk throughout my travel till i reach India.

You can check-in you bags as early as 3-4 hours prior do departure(that is when Air India opens up their counters). Double check with United if they are not transferring your bags automatically. Then you don't have to worry about them when you move from terminal to terminal.
Security check will take you no more than 15-30 min.
At T7(United) you can arrange a baggage handler to help you with the bags.
The TSA rules specify that you can take a "reasonable quantities" of baby milk - don't take too much , just enough to last you through the journey. And be prepared to tell TSA agents your reasonable explanation why you are carrying such quantities of baby milk.
