On Sept 3, we are arriving JFK from CVG on Delta 210 at 6:15pm and scheduled on Delta flt 246 to Rome at 7:30pm. That gives us only 1 hour, 15 min to make the connection. How can we best prepare to get over to the intl terminal in time?

Make sure all your bags are tagged all the way to final destination and you have all your boarding passes printed out at CVG. Once you arrive at JFK airport it is walking distance from arriving to departing gate. I hope luck is on your side with your first flight arriving on time. If it is not you may be out of luck. Also just to cover yourself speak with Delta just in case you miss a flight about their refund policy and what they can offer for you as their customer in case things get complicated. Thats the best advice I can give you.

From which terminal the delta flight AZ 7605 leaves for Rome?

From terminal 3.

From terminal 3.

Hello,
We are travelling to Florida via JFK with Delta Airlines in a few weeks. We arrive at T4 and depart from T3 a couple of hours later. I have a couple of questions that I hope you can help with.
Will we need to pick up our bags at T4 and recheck at T3?
The gap between our flights is 2.5 hours and I've seen several posts about big security delays at T4. Is this enough time to get to our next flight?
Will we need to check-in and go through security etc again for our internal connection?
Best wishes.

Yes you will need to recheck your bags if my understanding is correct and your first flight is international.
Your time frame should be enough.
If both flights are on Delta you can use Delta shuttle bus and in this case you will avoid security but you still have to check in with Delta for your second flight.

Hi, I'm flying from Manchester UK to LAX (American Airlines) and Im connecting at JFK Airport, I will arrive at 12:30pm at Terminal3 and depart to LAX at 07:00am from Terminal8, almost 18hours stopping time. During this time I plan to visit new york city and get back to the airport at around 23:00pm for the flight at 07:00am, my questions are:

Do I need to collect my baggage or it will automatically checkin to the next flight?
If yes, can I leave with American Airlines and collect it later when I'm back to the Airport?
Can I get into T8 at 22:00-24:00 so I can get some rest?

What is the best option and what is possible?

The only open terminal overnight is terminal 4 and thats where you can get some rest before your second flight. You will need to pick up your luggage and check it through Customs and clear Immigration once you arrive at JFK. You can leave your bags at a storage located at terminal 8.
