Arriving from South Africa
You don't want to walk from terminal to terminal unless they are right beside each other. Do yourself a favor and go to the Airtrain inner circle. This light rail inner circle train will circle the airport terminals. Hop on it and get off it when they announce your terminal. It doesn't cost anything to ride the inner loop and its only two minutes between each station.
Happy Travels,

i would suggest that
i would suggest that whomever arrives first, meet the others at their terminal. there's a train that travels between terminals that's very convenient. ask at the terminal where the "train to the plane" platform is.

Stopover
Hello,
I'm from Spain and I have a question about a stopover that my flight has. My fight is on 16th August, named AF11 from JFK to Charles de Gaulle (Paris, France). But then, from Charles de Gaulle to Spain, the flight is named AF1600.
Then, shall I understand that we'll physically do a stopover, get off the plane and change to another plane? Or it will be the same plane as it is considered a whole trip JFK-Spain only with a stopover in which we'll continue inside the plane, without changing to a different terminal or gate?
Thanks in advanced.
