Hi
I'll be arriving from San Francisco by AA to Terminal 8 at 18.05pm and need to catch the American Airlines flight to Budapest from Terminal 8 departing at 18.45pm. Will I have enough time for that? Thanks in advance.

Its impossible. On a flight like this going from domestic to international allow at least 2 hours in between the flights.

Hi.
I bought tickets from Finnair (Helsinki-New York - LA) Do I need to recheck tickets and baggage in JFK as I'm flying with AA to LA?

Yes since you will have to recheck your bags with AA and clear Immigration and Customs. You will need to do a passport check in with American Airlines at Terminal 8 and clear security.

Hi, my parents have to travel tomorrow. They will arrive at terminal 8 by american airlines and have to quicky reach Air India counter at terminal 4. Please giev the details.

Once they arrive at terminal 8 let them take an air train on track 2 from terminal 8 to terminal 4, it should take about 2 minutes then have them check in with Air India and go through security at terminal 4. Their bags should be clipped all the way to their final destination.

Hi, how do I get from Terminal 7 to Terminal 8 for Cathy Pacific? Where is the AirTrain? Which color should I take? Do I have to go through customs and immigration again once I arrive Terminal 8

Cathay Pacific is at terminal 7 not terminal 8. My understanding is that you will first take domestic flight and then international flight. If thats the case you dont have to go through Customs or Immigration. From terminal 8 take an air train on track 2 to terminal 7. One minute trip. Air train color is white.

I have a flight leaving Terminal 8 at 5:45 AM. Since I won't be getting more than a couple hours sleep that night in any case my plan was to head to the airport from manhattan around midnight and hangout there until I can check-in. Any reasons why not to do so? Thanks!

Go for it but make sure you are at the airport by 3 45 AM 2 hours before your scheduled flight.

Hi there,

Just wondering if you have any advice on the following connections and if they will allow enough time to make the following flights:

Arrive with American Airlines from Boston to JFK terminal 8 at 825pm

Depart with Emirates Airlines from JFK terminal 4 at 11pm.

Do you think this connection is too tight? Will I make this flight?

Many thanks for your insights and assistance.

You should be good to go with that time frame.
