Take any Airtrain on track 1
Take any Airtrain on track 1 from T4 to T7, this is much faster than taking the terminal loop on track 2. You should have just enough time to clear customs and transfer terminals.
JFK to Jersey City
What is the best train route from JFK to Jersey City (Newport)?
AirTrain on track 1 from
AirTrain on track 1 from terminal to Howard Beach Station, take inbound A subway to Chambers St, exit to Church St and walk 3 blocks south to the PATH Transit Center, take the PATH Green line train to Newport. Alternate: take AirTrain to Jamaica Station and take either LIRR or E subway to Penn Station, exit 7th Ave and walk one block east on 33rd St to PATH station at 6th Ave, take Yellow line train to Newport.

If you are arriving via
If you are arriving via domestic flight and do not have to clear customs you are in good shape. If you need to clear customs you probably will not have enough time. Take AirTrain on track 2 (terminal loop) from T7 to T1.
Air Train at JFK
Have two seniors arriving at the Delta Terminal and meeting rest of group coming in on a Jet Blue flight. What is best way for them to get from Delta to Jet Blue?
transport
Two of us need to get to the roosevelt hotel (manhatten), what is the best way?, a taxi is expensive (about 50$)
thanks Roger
Not sure what you mean by
Not sure what you mean by "best." There is express bus service from JFK to Grand Central Terminal -- a short walk from the Roosevelt -- that costs about $15/person, I believe. Or if you spend $13.60 on a Metrocard, you will end up with a card worth $14.50 (after the 7% bonus for purchases of $10 or more); that will cover the cost of the AirTtain to Jamaica Station, and the subway for two people. You can take a Manhattan-bound "E" subway from Jamaica Station to Fifth Avenue and 53rd Street. If you exit to the rear of the train, you will be at Madison Avenue and 53rd Street -- about a ten-minute walk down Madison to the Roosevelt.

Taxi to Penn Station is direct, especially if you have lots of luggage, but most expensive $45+tolls+tip. By public transportation take AirTrain on track 1 from terminal to Jamaica Station, transfer to LIRR to Penn Station.
