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 golf course provided the airport's original namesake, Idlewild Airport. First commercial flights began on July 1, 1948. 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.

Terminal 3 to Terminal 4 transfer help
Hi,
My wife and kids are travelling from Pittsburgh to India via JFK. In Terminal 3, in JFK, is there any help available to get the luggages to Terminal 4. They have 6 bags and two strollers. Looking for help to move the luggages from Terminal 3 to 4
Regards
Balu Thomas
Have them ask the airline at
Have them ask the airline at check-in in Pittsburgh if bags will be checked through to the final destination, which would be a big help. If not, they will collect bags at baggage claim, rent a baggage cart, take everything to Airtrain and take any train on track 1 one stop to terminal 4. Baggage carts are ok on Airtrain. If bags are checked through take Airtrain as above but they'll have less to schlep!
2 people flying from Different Terminals
Hello
My girlfriend and I are flying out of JFK to different destinations. I am off to Dublin, Ireland on DL164 (Terminal 3) and she is gong to Bogota, Colombia on AV 0285 (terminal 4).
Since I fly earlier than her, can she check in at terminal 3 and then head off for her flight later?
Thanks
Rodrigo
