Transfer between the
Transfer between the terminals is only a few minutes by airtrain. If you're transferring from an international flight to a domestic flight, you'll have to pick up your bags, take them to the other terminal and recheck them there. Even so, 3 hours should be sufficient. The difference between the transfer to terminal 8 or to terminal 3 from terminal 7 is literally 2-3 minutes.

Penn Station
Hey,
I arrive at Terminal 7 through CX at 13:10 from Hong Kong.
There are Amtrak trains that depart at 15:13 and 17:17.
I plan to take the AirTrain to Jamaica and take the LIRR to Penn Station. Would I be able to make the journey in time for the first train? Or should I leave a bit of time for the later departure.
About how long would it take to clear immigration?
Is there an Air Train schedule?
Thanks!
AirTrain is still out of
AirTrain is still out of service today. Shuttle buses are running between all terminals, Howard Beach and Jamaica Stations but allow plenty of time for this. LIRR has sporadic departures from Jamaica to Penn Station as only four of their ten branches are in operation, but the E subway is running. Amtrak is still having delays on trains to Boston and DC. Leave yourself plenty of time for any travel related activities today!!
The delays have been
The delays have been significant, give yourself as much time as possible to allow for any problems.
