My understanding all lockers at all airports has been removed since 9-11. We will have carry-on bags we do not want to take with us on our 6hours layover for a quick tour of WTC on our return flight from Italy to Seattle.

My questions, does American Airlines at Terminal 8 at the customer desk or baggage claim can "babysit" our carry-on bags for a few hours? If not, any suggestions?

Unfortunately not. You will have to carry your own luggage.

No.

Hi I am going to take a plane from HK and arrive JFK at 10am on a Saturday. I have to catch a train which departs from Penn Station to Charlottesville in Virginia at 1415. Do I have enough time?

There is an airtrain (it runs about every 5 minutes or so) that is connected to all of the terminals at JFK and then brings you to the Long Island Railroad Station in Jamaica. From there you can get a connection right into Penn Station. You should have plenty of time if your flight isn't delayed.

Hello, I am arriving from HKG on Cathay Pacific at 6:10am in terminal 7 and leave from terminal 4 (Copa Airlines) at 9:05am. Is this enough time? Do I have to go through immigrations and customs and security? Thank you.

Hi:
We will be travelling from Prague (under the Visa Waiver Programme) to Raleigh, NC, transfering at JFK. We will have 2:05 hours between the two flights to get through immigration and customs and since we are travelling with a one year old baby, I am wondering if this will be enough. I have cheched the map and it seems that we should both arrive and depart from gate 3, but does that even matter? Where exactly is the customs located? Should we apply for Global Entry? I wasnt able to find it on the map. Also, will we have to claim and recheck our luggage if the connecting flight was booked and bought together with the international one? Thank you for any relevant info.

Hello, we arrived from Las Vegas at 6 am to JFK and our next flight is at 7 pm to Madrid. The company is delta and we have the two flight associated, I mean we travel from Las vegas to Madrid. Can we go to the city and come back and check in again or we have to wait at the airport? Thanks

You have plenty of time enjoying the city but make sure to arrive 2 hours before your scheduled flight to Madrid.
