- Jeannette NorrisDecember 18, 2012Sit at one if the little desks equipped with plugs, USB ports and iPads near Croque Madame, order food from the iPad and get it delivered right to you!
- Desiree GueryDecember 31, 2011If you're flying sky priority or first class, check in at Terminal 2. It's designated for sky priority and first class check in! Says it when you're driving up. Not always open at Terminal 3.
- DensNovember 30, 2012If you're going to gate 18 or higher, don't be fooled by the sandwich shacks on the way.. there's a BURGER KING and STARBUCKS at the end if the long hallway past gate 15.
- CeresSeptember 30, 2012If you are looking for wall plug where recharge your stuff, beyond the signed one, every time completely full there is a hide place left of gate 16 with a lot of plug available.
- Keath ChanFebruary 21, 2013Gates B20-B30 are a shuttle bus ride away from gate B11. Shuttles can be as long as 20 minutes in between bus pickups during the early mornings. Plan accordingly.
- Leonel MJune 12, 2011If you love plane watching, you'll love the first lounge once past the security gate. You can easily pass the time here, don't miss your flight! ;)
- Louanne TeoOctober 12, 2010here too early? check in your bags n sit at the seats by the entrance. healthy gourmet on the other side of the security wall has free wifi. full bars!
- Try booking a flight that leaves between 10a-12p. It's smooth sailing through security during those times every day. So said the TSA person.
- Scott CawleyMay 5, 2011Awful, awful terminal. Delta check in staff lovely, TSA not so much. Get a free (delicious) Gelato sample from the lovely girl on the stand just past gate 14! (it's good stuff)
- Ollie MartinMay 11, 2013James Bond arrives at JFK's Terminal 3 and is picked up by his driver, Charlie, in Live and Let Die (1973).
- ChristianJuly 30, 2011Always closed when we get here, so we enjoy walking through traffic to get to Terminal 2. Another amazing experience from the Port Authority of NY/NJ
- Jon Paul BuchmeyerAugust 21, 2011Gate 15 has a nice coffee lounge with tons of power outlets and demo iPads. Best spot in a crappy terminal.
- M&MNovember 24, 2010Delta has a cool ipad lounge near gate 15. (Free of charge!) It's also a great place to charge your devices. There are outlets everywhere!
- NandoAugust 2, 2011AirTran leaves you closer to the higher numbered terminals. If you drive and park, be prepared to walk a looooong way. Terminal 25 was a massive disarray!
- Welcome to one of the crappiest major air terminals in America. Grow a mustache and wear a brown leather jacket. Pretend you're in a 70's Bronson flick so that the terminal doesn't feel so old.
- Harlan ErskineNovember 20, 2011No that's not the sound of a pleasant sound art installation of birds in terminal three - there are actual birds in the ceiling. Just pray they don't get in your flight too!
- Ashley WolffMarch 30, 2013One of the nicest terminals I've ever been in. Free ipads to use while you're here, and free wifi!
- 1. There are two check-in entrances here. Use the one in the back, less people on security line. 2. Free Wi-Fi at the bar by Gate 23!
- Kaycee DavisAugust 14, 2011There is another security line and a checkin area with no line, Plus you come into the terminal at gate 16&17 but I won't tell :-) The less people who find it the better!
- Laura VogelsApril 22, 2011This is a craptastic terminal. Best part- go up to the BK lounge and feed the birds nesting there.
- Ramon SuarezMarch 15, 2013Free Internet on iPads, USB recharge stations and nice working tables for laptops at gate 15
- Janice TSeptember 27, 2012There's an outlet under the phone booths by the stairs up to the BK, next to Gate 3.
- Skill3DMarch 12, 2013I had to use this terminal, and then decided -- I'll punch myself in the face; it's less painful! Subtract 30 minutes from your life that you won't get back. So much walking. Plan ahead.
- Hans MillerMay 9, 2011Check out the free food delivery to your gate from Balducci's and Chili's. Here's the app: Next time you're at JFK T3, check out free food delivery to the gate:
http://bit.ly/iMboTb - Hans MillerOctober 12, 2011Free delivery of airport food directly to the gate via smartphone! <20 minutes! iPhone:
http://bitly.com/iMboTbAndroid: http://bit.ly/nGKfzV - A'yen TranMarch 19, 2010Free wireless at the health food cafe around gate 24! Sick! Also the water fountains by the dunkin donuts are the best. Tallest water pressure.
- Hans MillerSeptember 12, 2011Try B4YouBoard for FREE delivery of your meal to your GATE!!! As featured on MSNBC! Here's the free app:
http://bitly.com/iMboTb - DanielSeptember 23, 2010There is only one place to charge your phones (samsung pole) but behnid the staircase 30ft from there, a bench was moved with a few sockets.
- Grant AllenJune 7, 2011I've seen nicer terminals in 3rd world countries. Birds flying around, water stains covering the ceiling, and a security line that feels like Mogadishu - not exactly JFK worthy.
- Leonel MJune 12, 2011Unknown if all of the terminals at JFK are the same. Plan ahead and DO NOT bring beverages with you to term 3. Security is at the front door, and there are food venues galore once past the gate.
- Max SklarJanuary 16, 2013I was the only one on the checkin and security line and somehow they still managed to make it confusing and unpleasant. But the dens tip on going through the long walk before getting food was key!
- Jonah BloomJune 19, 2012This Terminal will shred what's left of your patience with humankind and maul your soul. The architect was either: a) depressed; b) fucking with us; c) a vole.
- Ian EdgarMay 20, 2011This terminal's improving. Good bit hidden around gates B4 - B16. Classier looking food. iPads everywhere too.
- DominicFebruary 7, 2010Beware you carry on folks. I carry a mid size that fits fine on the overhead, but security at jfk checks the size of your bag so this can be a challenge and is totally unecessary. Idiots
- Tris PriorMay 7, 2013Print your boarding pass ahead of time. You will NOT be allowed on the luggage drop line if you do not have your boarding pass. Just save yourself the pain and don't fly Delta.
- AlexandraMarch 25, 2011They've actually revamped this terminal a bit since some ppl have commented. Not too bad. Security line still long though. But what do you expect--it's JFK aiport.
- Ed KohlerJanuary 13, 2012If you have time to kill, take the Air Train to terminal 4. It's pleasant by comparison.
- AmesicleJanuary 17, 2012The terminal may suck but there is at least a better selection of food here than at LGA delta terminal. I recommended packing food if you have to fly out of there
- Freda MoonMay 15, 2013Birds (yes, multiple) flying around inside the terminal. Keep it classy, Delta.
- Anthony VOctober 18, 2010Put on your walking shoes, transfers may have you crossing a good distance. Enjoy before they start tearing this place down.
- Geoffrey Hofman-FrethemOctober 31, 2011Apparently there are other TSA checkpoints besides the first one you encounter coming in off the AirTrain. FIND THEM. Trust me on this one.
- Making me walk 2 minutes in arctic like temperatures without a coat? Not cool, JFK. My tip is dont pack your coat!
- Jerry RivasMarch 6, 2012The key is getting on one of the first daily flights. Absolutely no one in security line, took me five mins from baggage drop to gate 10.
- GiancarloMarch 17, 2011Gates 15-30 are quite a ways out. Leave yourself an extra 5-15 minutes time to reach those.
- Blane BoyntonDecember 16, 2011Instead of fixing roof leaks this place has installed tarps in the ceilings with hoses running down (into buckets?) this terminal couldn't be more ghetto if they tried...delta...spend some cash fix it
- The Starbucks could be slower....and they could screw up your drink more...but it'd be hard.
