I have a connection at jfk and need to travel from terminal 8 to terminal 1. I only have 1 hour, 20 mins for my layover... Is this enough time? What is the quickest way between the 2?
Thanks!

I am flying from Atlanta to London in September on KLM. I have a five hour layover in JFK, and I will be flying into, and out of, Terminal 4. Is it allowed to move between terminals to find something to eat/do outside of terminal 4?

We arrive from Heathrow late Tuesday 27th July and have a connecting flight to Boise Idaho.
Do we have to collect our baggage and then check it in again for second flight.
Are the lounges open to wait the 8 hours for the second flight? Have two older children to keep an eye on.
Many thanks

My wife is flying Delta to Tokyo in November from Atlanta through JFK and has only a 46 minute stop over at JFK. Can she check her bags in Atlanta and have them arrive in Tokyo without doing anything at JFK with them? Does she have to do any special international ticketing in JFK to go to Tokyo or can this all be done in Atlanta? Also, does she have to change terminals at JFK if all flights are Delta, and if so, does she have to go through security again or do anything else regarding the internation portion of her trip? The concern in only 46 minutes at JFK to change flights.

Hello, I will arrive from Bogota to JFK by Avianca on July 25th,2010, at 6am. Then I must take a JetBlue flight to Buffalo at 8am. I really appreciate if you could inform me: which is the current terminal for JetBlue flights -5 or 6?; Is enough two hours to take the Jetblue flight?, and Which is the easiest way to get from Terminal 4 to the Jetblue Terminal?. Thank you in advance

Jet Blue is located at Terminal 5. Easiest way to get there from T4 is to walk(5-10min walk). Two hours should be enough to transfer.

Coming in at 445p on Morac Airlines from Fez to JFK, trying to get to a united flight at 715 to SFO - enough time?

Plenty!

hi, I am flying into jfk with BA from london LHR. And my connecting flight is with AA to orlando MCO. and only have 3 hour's between flights. I have never done this before so what is the procedure and is 3 hour's enough. Regards simon.

Is 45 minutes adequate for AmAir flight 160 arriving JFK at 5pm to connect to AmAir flight 236 departing for Rome at 5:45pm (early Nov)?

Yes, no need to clear security again. Hope the AA 160 is not late.

hello!
we are flying from bogota with avianca (terminal 4?), transiting through JFK to go to washington dc with delta airlines (terminal 3?) with exactly three hours between landing and take-off, if all is on time. we are uncertain as to what the transit procedures are and would appreciate some step-by-step guidance, including transport between terminals.

we heard that if we had luggage, that we would have to pick up the luggage at JFK and then check it in again. pls explain this procedure.

we thought that it would be too much of a hassle and perhaps just travel with hand luggage. would that speed things up? would check-in procedures change?
however, we have a little toddler with us and would like to bring a stroller along. what are the stroller policies? if the stroller has to be checked in as luggage, should we just as well have normal luggage with us as we would have to wait at the luggage claim anyway if we have to pick up our luggage in transit?

also, i am pregnant. would that speed up the process for the whole family a little: less standing in line at check-in, security etc?

since we only have 3 hours between landing and take-off in NY, what would be the easiest solution considering our short transit time ?
1) take only hand luggage with stroller because stroller can be used in transit
2) take only hand luggage but check in stroller
3) take normal luggage and go through check-in

we are leaving in a few days and would greatly appreciate a quick reply.
thanks in advance and have a nice day.

On Monday 19 July 2010 my wife and I are to be met by a representative of Cunard cruise Lines to board a shuttle that is to take us to the Queen Mary II. The shuttle is to meet us at the JFK baggage claim area. Since we are not flying into JFK I need to know if each terminal has a separate baggage claim area or is there one area for all terminals? If there is one baggager claim area in which terminal/area is it located. If there are many baggage claim areas which terminal number is the location for flights that arrive from Washington DC.

Hi, my mom is flying in from Moscow to JFK and then to Seattle by Delta. She is going to have only 2 hours between flights. I was wondering if it is enough time for her to go through all the customs and migration services and catch her Seattle flight. Thank you.

Delta has me booked on a flight from Detroit - JFK, with a 45 minute transfer to a Delta flight to Athens. Is this enough time? Delta says this is a "legal" connection...
