Transit
My son is travelling from Zurich to San Jose (Costa Rica) by AA on Christmas. His transit time is 2hrs45min. He has to go through immigration and custom. It’s his first time to travel alone and his age is 15 and not so fluent in English.
Is there any detailed description of how and where to proceed?
re:My son is travelling from Zurich to San Jose (Costa Rica) by
Here is close description of the steps :
1. disembark the plane
2. go through US immigration.
3. pick up his checked bags at the baggage belt
4. go through US customs
5. re-check his bags at American Airlines connecting flights counter, located immediately after customs.
6. go to the third floor of T8 and obtain a boarding pass if he does not have one already issued by the airline. He can do that either from the self-service kiosks or from AA check-in counters.
7. go through security and look for the gate number for the flight to San Jose.

Hi, we are arriving from SFO on AA at terminal 8 at 16:10 and departing on AerLingus at 18:30 via terminal 4. Can you tell me where to catch the train and how long this transfer will take? Thanks for you help.

Go to the second floor of T8 and follow the signs for the Airtrain. Take it on track 2 and you will be at T4 in about 3 minutes.

Connection questions
Hello, we will be arriving to JFK from Madrid (American Airlines) at 12:45. And then we have to take the plane to San Francisco (also with American Airlines) at 15:10. As I have understood, both flights arrive and start in Terminal 8, is this right? But as I have both tickets separate, what is the right procedure in order to save time (we have 2hours and 25min in between)? Is there a way to send the luggage straight from Madrid to San Francisco? Do we have to pass through costums in JFK? How long does it usually take to complete the procedure?
Please, could you advise?
Thanks and regards.
re: will be arriving to JFK from Madrid (American Airlines ) at
Ask AA in Madrid if they can check your bags all the way through SFO. You still have to clear customs and immigration at JFK - it takes somewhere between 30-50 mins.

JFK Overnight
I have an American Airlines flight in November that arrives from London at approx 11:30pm and my connection departs to San Francisco the next morning at 7:00am.
Where is the best place to sit and wait it out at the airport? I looked at hotels and its at least $160 w/transportation for about 5 hours so I'm not going to do that.
Can I check in for my 7:00am flight after I clear customs and go thru security to my gate and wait there? If not, any suggestions on where to wait at the airport?
I'm guessing that Terminal 8 is the same terminal where my flight will arrive and depart since they are both American Airlines flights.
Thanks!
For your AA flight you can
For your AA flight you can check as early as 3am , but no earlier than that. You can go to T4(via Airtrain)and spend the hours there - the building is open 24/7.
Int'l Transfer @ Terminal 8 from AA to AA
Is there an international transit area @ JFK's Terminal 8 or do I need to do immigration when travelling from Europe to Costa Rica via JFK on AA?!
re:Is there an international transit area @ JFK's Terminal 8
There is no transit area at JFK. Everybody that transits through USA will have to go through US immigration and US customs.
