History - Construction of the airport began in 1942 with modest ambitions. Only 1,000 acres (4 km²) of land on the site of Idlewild golf course were earmarked for use.

The airport was formally dedicated as New York International Airport on July 31, 1948. It was re-dedicated on December 24, 1963 as John F. Kennedy International Airport, following action of the Mayor and Council of the City of New York, and a resolution of the Commissioners of the Port Authority. After the September 11, 2001 attacks, JFK was one of the first airports in the United States to be temporarily closed.

air train
she lands jet blu i think term 5
she needs to get to term 4 after she gets her baggage
re:air train
If it is Terminal 5 then the Airtrain station is located on the third floor. All your daughter has to do after she picks up her bags is to take elevator/escalator to the third floor, follow the signs to the station, take Airtrain on track 2 for one stop to Terminal 4.
