I have ticket from kiev arival time 15/03/2011 17.35 terminal D. and than flight to Orlando at 15/03/2011 9.20, but I dont know from which terminal and how can I get the terminals

If your first flight from Kiev Ukraine is by AeroSvit Ukranian Airlines then your flight will arrive at terminal 4. If your second flight to Orlando is on Delta it can depart from terminal 2 or terminal 3. Use air train to transfer between the terminals. It should be a short ride less than 2 minutes.

My daughter and 2 friends are flying into JFK on 2 different airlines. They would like to meet up and travel to Manhattan together. One party is flying Delta and the other Virgin America at same time. What is the best way to meet up. Should they try to get to the same terminal or can one party get a cab and pick the other party up at their terminal?

The best way is to meet each other at the airport. Virgin America. Delta can arrive on t2,t3 or t4 while you will arrive at terminal 4. The best way is to meet at terminal 4 arrivals by the Welcome Center. Use air train on track 2 to transfer between terminals and then at terminal 4 take a cab to Manhattan. JFK_Specialist

arriving at jfk on american airlines on sat then taking icelandaire to iceland then on return trip icelandaire to jetblue. what terminals on each way do i arrive and the nneed to get too? i have to recheck luggage? correct?

AA arrives at T8, Iceland Air departs from T7. Most likely AA will check your bags all the way through(double check with them). Use airtrain on track 2 for one stop between T8 and T7.
Iceland Air arrives at T7 and Jet Blue departs from T5. You have to pick up your bags at T7 in order to go through US customs. Re-check the bags at T5. Use airtrain on track 2 to go from T7 to T5.

Icelandair departs and arrives terminal 7
Jetblue departs and arrives terminal 5
American Airlines departs and arrives terminal 8
If you are arriving on international flight then yes you have to check in your luggage through Customs and Immigration.

I've never flown into JFK before. 3 flights tomorrow, #3841,#2120, #579 all on Delta. Which terminal does Delta domestic flights from Detroit arrive, and which terminal does the flight to San Juan leave from? I know San Juan is concidered part of the US, but will I have to go thru Immigration/Customs because we travel over International/Caribbean waters?

Flight DL2120 from DTW will arrive at Gate 17, Terminal 3.
Go to gate 11 where you can take Delta shuttle to Terminal 4. You next flight DL579 departs out of Gate B26 at T4.
No customs/immigration involved in this case.

Delta domestic will most likely arrive at terminal 2 or 3. You will clear Customs and Immigration in San Juan.

Hello,
We are looking in to flying to Albany,and we have a 3hour and 20min lay over in JFK, Is ther something cool to do or see with with a 14, and 13 year old, can we see any thing fron the plane?

I'll be coming back from my flight from Frankfurt Airport to JFK on March 12 arriving at 2:45pm and leaving at 4:05pm, giving me a 1 hour 20 minute window to get through customs and make my flight. Is this possible? Could you tell me what customs is like at JFK and if it has incredibly long lines at this time or your experiences with it? I know in Atlanta it took a long time to make it through. Thanks!

Yes it is possible to make that connection as long as your first flight from Frankfurt Germany is on time. Customs and Immigration may take up to an hour. Once you arrive at JFK make sure to look for the gate number on you boarding pass.

I am travelling from Las Vegas to Toronto connecting at JFK. I will only have one hour from when the flight from Las Vegas arrives to when the flight for Toronto departs. I will have 1 checked bag. Is this enough time?

Tight connection time but you will make it as long as your first flight is on time.First flight is domestic so you dont have to clear customs and immigration only security before your second flight. At Las Vegas you can always ask for your bag to be checked all the way to Toronto. Also look for a gate number on the boarding pass when you arrive at JFK Airport.
