I have a few colleagues that are going to a business trip to Las Vegas.
They are arriving (on American Airlines) from London, at Terminal 8 at 3pm. They have 1.30' to connect (also at terminal 8) to Las Vegas.
My question is:
Since this is a transit situation, just for connecting flights, do they have to go through security and custom immigration when they arrive in NY? or just in LV?
Who much time it is this?
They need to collect their luggage? or the AA will reconnect their bags?
And if they lose the connection flight to LV?

Hi! I need to make you a question and I hope you can help me.My mother will arrive to terminal 4 (Taca ) at 1 a.m. and i will arrive to terminal 8 (AA) AT 6 A.M. My mother will wait for me, and we dont´t know where she can do that. My question is: a) How much is the distance between both terminals?, b) Can she walk that distance with her luggage (from terminal 4 to terminal 8) or she need to take a taxi or a transfer? c) In terminal 8, is there any place where get information about my flight so she can wait me in the correct gate? Thank you very much!

Hi, I am a travel agent, and wonder if it's ok to offer my customer 2 separate tickets with a connection time of 4 Hours.
He will arrive terminal 8, but should depart from terminal 4.
Will he have enough time to make it through?

I am arriving AA from Canada at JFK Terminal 8 at 1:10 PM. I only have carry-on bags, no check-in bags. I need to connect flight at Terminal 4 Air India at 3 PM.

(a) Since this is a transit situation just for connecting flights between 2 terminals, do I have to go through security and custom immigration again at Terminal 4 ?

(b) Since I have carry-on bags, how much time is needed to go from Terminal 8 to Terminal 4, if I have to clear custom & immigation, and security again ?

(c) Is there usually a long line for custom & security clearance at Terminal 4 ?

Thank you !

I am flying from Italy, to Bermuda via JFK (both on American), and have a tight connection. If I'm not staying on American soil, do I still go through immigration? Thanks.

Hi

I travel next month AA from UK to JFK then on to San Juan also on AA. I understand we have to go through passport control and immigration but do we need to collect our luggage. I was told by our travel agent that our luggage would automatically be transferred between planes and straight to our ship in San Juan, which I can't bring myself to beleive.

I will be arriving on Finnair at termainl 8 and making a connection to American leaving 75 minutes later to San Diego. Will I be going through passport and customs control in terminal 8? Will I have time to retrieve luggage, go through customs, recheck luggage and make my connection? Will I have to go through security again or can I go directly to my boarding gate? Thanks

We are flying into JFK on BA from LHR, connecting to a AA flight to Tampa. Two questions; 1. Do we have to collect our luggage at JFK to re-check them for AA flight? 2. What is the best way to transfer to AA terminal from T7? Thanks

Yes all international flights must clear customs with the first US port of entry which means you must pick up your luggage. Afterwards the airline will reconnect your bags if you have 90 minutes between flights. Follow the signs for the airtrain, once on, 1 stop over to Terminal 8 which is American Airlines.

I am picking up a passenger that will be arriving from RIO. Flight AA974 It appears they will be arriving at Terminal 8. Since they will not have a cellphone that is operational in US; I wanted to check and see where the best place to arrange to meet would be? I am not from the NY area so any additional help you could provide such as where I should park, how to get to the location, and how much time to allow would also be appreciated.
