Take the JFK AirTrain from JetBlue (T5) to
Terminal 1(T1) for $5. Twenty to 30-minutes the most.

Or, hop into a NYC Taxi outside Terminal 1 and give the driver $8-10.

I would like to Know if there is the option for the Airtrain from JFK to Newark or La Guardia and the time for wich trip

Sorry but there is not an AirTrain that connects the three airports (JFK, Newark or LaGuardia)
Please vist this site: http://www.panynj.gov/airports/jfk-airport-connections.html
to find out the best way to travel between the various airports. Thanks!

What is the best way to get from T5 (JetBlue) that arrives at 11:30am to get to T7 (Cathay Pacific) that leaves at 2pm? Which tram should I use?

Is it necessary to catch my baggage in the terminal 1 or the airline entemprisse will give my baggage to the terminal 3?. And will I have time for this connecting flight?. Thanks for your help.

Hi my boyfriend and are are traveling on the same day around the same time however, my departing flight is with JetBlue (terminal 5) and his is US Airways (terminal 7). We are both going to get out at terminal 5 but he will still need to go to terminal 7 to catch his flight. How can he do that? Thank you

Hi,

My parents are stuck in traffic in Lincoln tunnel and they have flight from lufthansa from terminal 1 at 5: 40 pm, My parents are going for really urgent work, and they must take this flight. Is there a way to tell the lufthansa counter at terminal 1 if they could allow my parents to check in. My parents will reach there before 5:40 pm but airlines usually close check in before. My parents do not have any luggage to check in. Is there any way that my parents don't miss this flight. Can somebody help me with this. The ticket is non-refundable.

I'll be grateful.

Thanks.
