Ask the airline you arriving
Ask the airline you arriving on (right after you pick up your bags). They most likely will direct you to their "Connecting flights" counter where you can transfer the bags.

JFK to PENN
Hi,
I will be flying from Paris to JFK and arriving at 10.20, what are my chances of making it to PENN station by 12.45.
Is this possible or will it entirely be dependant on customs and if I get lucky with airtrain connections?
Thanks in advance!
It always depends on how
It always depends on how long it takes to get through customs and if your flight is delayed arriving. With the main runway now closed for construction and the other three handling all traffic I'd wouldn't count on making it by 12:45.
Connecting between Terminals 3 - 8
I'm arriving in Terminal 3 (Delta) and then departing a few hours later out of Terminal (2) also Delta. Friends of mine are on American Airlines leaving out of Terminal 8/9. I would like to visit with them for a few minutes to say hello before all of our flights depart, how long would it take me to get from Terminal 3 - 8, and then from 8 - 2? Is Airtrain the easiest and fastest way?
RE: I'm arriving in Terminal 3
Airtrain is convenient way between those terminals . It will take you no more that 10-15 min(including walking to the stations from the terminals). And it's free.

New York Sheraton hotel -- JFK
Hi! We need to catch a plane at JFK tomorrow night (saturday 28 feb) and we're staying at the Sheraton New York hotel. Do we go by subway, train, bus...?
Would be thankful for some advise.
AirTrain service
Take the E train @ 53rd Street and 7th Avenue to Jamaica station (in Queens). When you arrive at Jamaice, go upstairs (use the elevator),and follow the signs to AirTrain (you will walk right past all the Long Island Rail Road platforms), and it will take you to the JetBlue terminal (#6 I believe). It is easy as can be, although the walk from the AirTrain to Jetblue is a healthy one (all indoors, there is a moving walkway). The cost is $2.25 for the subway, and $5.00 for the AirTrain, total $7.25.
AirTrain Status
Can anyone update with the Airtrain service status?
I can't seem to find a page that has it.
Thanks in advance.
Airtrain is working - no
Airtrain is working - no problems so far....
