We arrive on Delta 2090 connecting to Air France 007. What terminal will we arrive at, what terminal is Air France and how do we change terminals? Thanks.

You will be arriving either at T3 or T2 and departing on Air France out of T1. If you arrive at T2 just walk to T1 - it is only 5 min walk. If you arrive at T3 - take Airtrain on track 2 and get off next stop-T1.

My daughter is arriving in from Dublin through Delta Airlines. She then is taking Jet Blue. Can someone tell me what is the easiest way for her to get from Delta to Jet Blue? Thanks.

She has to take Airtrain on track 1 and get off second stop - Terminal 5.

Thank you!

We are arriving at JFK via Emirates from Dubai and then travelling on to Orlando with Jetblue, which terminal will we arrive in and which will we depart to Orlando from?

You will be arriving at Terminal 4 and departing on Jet Blue out of Terminal 5.

I'm arriving on Sunday with El Al from Tel Aviv 3:20, and I have a connecting flight to Toronto at 5:10, do I have to go out via immigration and customs and that check in again my baggag? Do u think the connecting time is ok?

You do have to pass immigration,pick up the nags and then pass customs since you are coming on international flight.
Recheck your bags at El Al connecting flights counter. The time frame is tight - hope you have your bags checked through and your boarding pass(for Toronto flight) issued by El Al.

Thank you so much for the answer,
I just have a small question;
After I'm exiting immigration and customs at JFK, do I exit to the public area where my relative can come and say hello to me? Is there a transit zone at JFK or do I totally go out to the public zone?
What is the easiest and fastest way to get to my next flight AA to Toronto?
Thank you again
Please copy reply to my email.

After exiting customs you will be at public area where everybody has an access. The easiest way from T4 to T8 is to take Airtrain (located on the third floor of T4). T8 is three stops away on any track.

I am flying with Delta from MAN-JFK then catching another Delta flight JFK-LAS , will I have to change terminal and therefore go through security again? Also, will my luggage be checked through to my LAS flight or will I need to collect and check it in again? Last question, promise! Is there a smoking area? Thanks

You may have to change the terminals since Delta operates out of T2,T3 and T4.
Even your bags will be checked through you still have to pick them up at JFK in order to go through US customs. And then re-check them in at Delta connecting flights counter.
No smoking inside any buildings at JFK , only outside.

HI,
I have booked 2 separate tickets. One from DTW to JFK by Delta and second from JFK to India by Kuwait airways. My question is, since I booked two different tickets, can I check in my baggage in Detroit and collect it at my destination in India. Or do I have to claim my baggage in JFK and recheck them. I arrive in JFK at 7.20 pm and Kuwait airways leaves JFK at 9.45PM. SO Basically I have 2 hr and 25 mins. would this time be enough if I have to claim my baggage and recheck it and clear the security within 2 and a half hours.

Thanks for the reply in advance

Show the tickets to Delta agents at DTW - they maight be able to check your bags through. The time frame is enough for you to transfer.
