Walkable distance 2 minutes at best.

On 3/18, my girlfriend and I are coming from opposite directions but checking in together at Terminal 8 for an American Airlines flight. Is there an easy to find curbside check in area where we can wait for each other to arrive?

Terminal 8 departures before you both clear security.

I'm traveling on a Saturday morning. Is it enought time to catch a connecting flight that is from JAXto JFK on JetBlue that arrives at on 1:55 and my International Flight on Air China departs at 3:50? I have bags that need to checked.

You should be all set and good to go with your time frame as long as your first flight is on time.

I am on an AA international flight from Milan to JFK, but my final destination is Knoxville. As part of immigration, will my bags come out and need to be rechecked before I go to the gate for my next flight? If so, and I want to stay in NYC and skip the second flight to Knoxville, can I just leave and take my bags with me?

You will have to pick up the bags and check them through U.S Customs and go through Immigration and you will have to recheck your bags for your Knoxville flight. You can absolutely take the bags with you and leave if you wish. JFK_Specialist

hello! i will be arriving to jfk on the 8 of march at 6 am in the terminal 4, my mother will be arriving at the same time but in terminal eight... i was wondering where we can make a meeting point? a easy to get to! thank you very much!

An easy meeting point would by at Terminal 4 arrivals by the Welcome Center. Your mom can use an air train on track 1 once she gets off her flight. Terminal 4 is 4 stops away.

The only way to get from T8 to T4 via airtrain is to take it on track 2 only.

We are departing this Thursday Mar. 3rd at 7:30am on AA from JFK Terminal 8 to St. Maarten in the Caribbean. Question: is the security line huge at Terminal 8 that time? We are a film camera crew of 6 and will have a fair amount of gear. The AA rep at the main phone number had no idea--but I thought you may.

Thanks, Bob

Line shouldnt be that long at that time of the morning.

I will be flying BCN-JFK-LAS and have 1hrs 25mins exchange time. Is that enough so that I will make it to the flight to LAS (arrive&leave Terminal 8), if I don't have hand luggage and need to go through the immigration and customs as well?

If your first flight is international and from outside U.S and entering U.S you will have to go through immigration and Customs. It will be a tight connection but departing and arriving at the same terminal and not having bags will be a major plus for you. Hopefully your first flight is on time as well.

you should be OK, kind of tight though
