We seem to have lost a bag when getting off the airtrain in the elevator. I am in Aruba with no clothes hope to find my bag. I can identify the bag with everything in it. Contact me at salmar@optonline.net

Try to post your comment on Lost and Found section of this forum. You may have a better shot of getting your bag back.

We are family from Europe. We have AA flight from Cancun to JFK which should land friday 2:20 pm and Finair flight to Helsinki at 6:45. Supose to be in the same terminal.
Do we have time to go through immigration and re-check in even if our flight from Cancun is 1 hour due?
Is that time busy in terminal8?

That time of the day it is usually busy, however, you have 4 hours and 25 minutes between your flight which is more than enough to make it.

please let me know which is the easiest way (but inexpensive) to go from JFK to Newark Airport. we are 2 passengers arriving tomorrow at JFK. thanks!

With 2 people involved you can use yellow cab. It should be under 100 dollars for the trip.

Hi,
Next summer we will make a transfer at JFK airport with final destination Miami. When we arrive at JFK terminal 8 what is the exact procedure to take this connection. (airline company for these 2 flights is American Airlines)
1. immigration
2. take luggage back
3. back to AA desk & check in again???
4. ...

Last year we had a direct flight with delta (final destination was jfk) & we arrived in terminal 2, we loosed more than 2 hours for immigration procedure, this year we have for our connection flight 3 hours, I hope this will be enough???

Thanks for your help.

You should be fine with 3 hours to make that connection.

thanks for your answer, could you explain us where we can drop our baggage after immigration procedure.
The connection flight is also an AA flight.Thanks in advandce for your feedback. Sebastien

I am Trying to confirm if the fly number AA 975: frm JFK to CCS is cancelled. i have checked on the web page and it says the flith is cancelled.

I arrive into JFK from Brussels (BRU) at 12:40pm on (AA Terminal 8) and my connecting flight to Chicago (ORD) is at 2:30pm (AA Terminal 8). Is it possible to clear the immigration (non US citizen, no green card), customs and still make my connection? Is there any priority stand-in-line / service for Business class passengers in JFK T8? Any input/Suggestion is highly appreciated.

Every passenger has to go through immigration and security. You should be fine with that time slot. Unfortunately no priority stand in line available at JFK airport.

There is no priority stand-in line - the advantage of being business/first class in the case is that you will be coming off the plane first and go straight to immigration counter.
Your time frame is OK - as long as BRU flight is on time.

Hi, we arrived on dec 24 at 14:55 the terminal 8, our next flight leaves at 20:40 from terminal 8
1. How long is migration time.
2. What can we do to pass time and not lose next flight.

Immigration and Customs might take you more than 1 hour depending on the time of the day or night.You have plenty of time to make that connection. In the spare time you can hang out at snack or coffee shop located at every terminal at JFK Airport.
