History - Construction of the airport began in 1942 with modest ambitions. Only 1,000 acres (4 km²) of land on the site of Idlewild golf course were earmarked for use.

The airport was formally dedicated as New York International Airport on July 31, 1948. It was re-dedicated on December 24, 1963 as John F. Kennedy International Airport, following action of the Mayor and Council of the City of New York, and a resolution of the Commissioners of the Port Authority. After the September 11, 2001 attacks, JFK was one of the first airports in the United States to be temporarily closed.

I was infomred that a friend of mine who is travelling from Ghana is at the immigration office and cannot continue his trip.
How can I verify this information? Hom should I talk to to try o help him?
I urgently need an answer.
I think you would have to
I think you would have to call the airport number 718-244-4444 and ask for the department of homeland security's number or if they can transfer you and find out there.hope it will work.
Airplane tickets?
Can you be 17 and still be able to purchase an airplane ticket? I live in New York City.
Arriving Terminal 4 - need to re-check bags w/ JetBlue
Help ASAP! I am managing a group of 20 students flying in from Nigeria on Arik Airlines. The flight arrives Terminal 4. I understand they will clear customs/immigration in Terminal 4. JetBlue tells me they must take their bags to Terminal 5 to check bags for their final flight to Orlando on JetBlue. This doesn't make sense to me. Please confirm; I think they can check bags in Terminal 4 then proceed without baggage to Terminal 5. Can they check the bags in Terminal 4 and get their boarding passes as well, REGARDLESS OF WHO THEY ARRIVED ON.
Thanks!! This flight is Monday so please respond ASAP.
re:Help ASAP! I am managing a group of 20 students flying in fro
Since Jet Blue does not have baggage transfer agreement with Arik, they have to take their bags and check them in at T5.

Thank you.

Get off at Jamaica Station and transfer to Airtrain which will take you to JFK terminals.
