MarkMay 15, 2012If ur flying Delta out of Terminal 3 and ur gate is 19-30, ur actually leaving out of TERMINAL 2!!!! head to security at T2, it's FASTER and CLOSER to ur actual gate
The FAA has noticed that planes to go back and to the left when they fly out despite what the radar says.
De icying in prep for flight! Got Lucky to be able to fly b4 snowstorm arrived.
Pays to have TSA. It's not always open but today it worked great!!
If you enjoy growing old, check your bag on a delta flight to JFK. The new terminal 4 allows you to grow old waiting for your bag hours after the plane lands.
Odin Hørthe OmdalJune 20, 2013Have a transfer but not long enough for city? There's a small grass island in the car park right outside the Delta terminal.
For delta flights, even If you're scheduled to depart from terminal 3, it's faster and better to check in at terminal 2. They're connected by a breezeway.
Use the McDonald's app to get super cheap airport food. Deals work even at the airport
DeanOctober 13, 2010Round trip bus to Grand Central on NYAS is only $27. Give the driver a few bucks for a tip. Definitely the easiest way to Mid-Town.
Traveling to Asia? Stay clear of Air China. Absolutely the worst inflight movies and TV shows. Food is sparse, alcohol runs out quick. Stewardesses aren't too shabby though and are quite friendly
Iconic NYC airport. Take a moment to soak up the history... But don't miss your flight!
Kira MungovanJuly 10, 2017Big airport but a little awkward as it's too big. No free wifi as usual in USA airports
Sylvia LewisJanuary 4, 2014Flight to Mexico delayed. Lots of crowds. nice Delta lady checked us in so we didn't have to wait on line.
Don't shut off your phone until you are really about to take off. You may wait "in line" on the runway up to 45 minutes.
One of my fav airports- but the security lines need major work!
When waiting in line for security close your eyes and pretend you are sitting in first class
Sergio CanalesApril 18, 2012Please, bring just two bags in hands, we get here with 6, has to pay overweight, plus another suitcase, 360 dolars for 20 kilos... Thanks Lan, Thanks for the tratment to preferent passengers... Not!
FlightCenter.comJanuary 3, 2012TSA TIP #2 Have your boarding pass and photo ID out and in your hand to be verified by the TSA officers while in line.
Greatest city in the world but we can't give you free wifi
It's pretty good for getting to and from new York.
IriskaApril 21, 2011Good way to rip ppl more-take all the food away at security and offer me a freaking yogurt for 4 bucks!super!Makes it even better that yogurt smell like poop. Can they use security of the food prices?
There are 2 shake shacks by the delta gates in T4. Don't get food from anywhere else.
Connie WongJune 30, 2016If you have to fly out of different gates (I flew two different airlines) you have to completely leave the terminal and go through security again
The New York Daily NewsDecember 1, 2010PHOTO: The British Invasion! Fans crowd the tarmac and rooftops at JFK for a chance to see The Beatles' first steps in America in 1964, at the link! Read more
Jay EaglesonJuly 18, 2013The airport is massive and there are a ton of people around at all times of day.
Craig CavaliereMay 6, 2013The white zone is for immediate loading and unloading of passengers only. There is no stopping in the red zone.
John KiddeNovember 20, 2014HUGE airport, watch out if the train connecting the terminals is out of service - you'll need to hop on a shuttle bus.
If you have an extra hour before your flight, consider grabbing a massage
- Lorrell WalterMarch 25, 2011The children's store is great for killing time with little ones. There are movies playing and a big mega bloks table to play with.
Angel MorenoAugust 28, 2013If you are flying international, you get the $13 American Spirits cigarettes for $3.40! Holy crap!
If you're in T5, hit up Illy near Gate 10... it beats Dunkin' Donuts by serving Italian coffee, not that East Coast mule piss.
There is No Dunkin Donuts in terminal 8! That's very dissappointing.
Muhammad JamanOctober 27, 2016The foods here are sucks try to eat before coming here..the service also dosnt represent the american standards.
TSA agents, stop hassling me for only having my Canadian drivers license. It's on the approved list!
AirTrain Costs $5 per ride, collected at Jamaica or Howard Bay station.
Ron Sherrill IIApril 24, 2013The #AirTrain on Track 2 for #JFk Airport is currently not working. So be sure to leave a bit early to avoid any delays.
Natalia CruzMay 1, 2015So crowded and dirty, not comfortable at all. And the food is really expensive, so if you going to wait for hours, you should eat something before you get in to the boarding room- Fly Air France, you'll get access to the best lounge around.

"Healthy breakfast option = multiple places that offer oatmeal, including Piazza, Jamba Juice, Starbucks, and Cibo Express. I recommend Cibo for fast and decent and you can pair it with mixed fruit."
ansje miller
"I recommend Upper Crust for decent prices and good food. Also a nice quite seating area to wait!"
Jason Danheiser
"Lots of dining places closed in term 8 from Covid. Slowly re-opening, as new restaurants. Restaurant rents are $$$$$"
