    one of the busiest airports in the world, but it's an absolute shit show. very disorganized and not visitor friendly at all.

    If you're taking the B15 here & need one of the later terminals, you're better off taking the bus to Terminal 4 and catching the AirTrain there

    If you've just landed, you should Dial 7's now to save time on the taxi line. It's the same cost as a cab

    So 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

    They don't have wrapping service anymore, so make sure you wrap your luggage carefully in advance.

    Flying in over long island you get a better appreciation of NYC that you don't see if you fly in through alternative airports.

    If 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

    There's an hour's free WiFi access on the Boingo network if you download the free app with your iPhone / iPad / iPod Touch. Just connect and follow link on landing page.

    WHY is Virgin America in the International terminal? Make sure you check BEFOREHAND where your company is located #underconstructionforever

    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.

    Terminal 8 is the pits. Starting from the TSA agents being extremely mean to the passengers, to the very few options to buy something to eat, to the bad treatment the ones that they do have. Stay away

    Wow. Delta is often inept and the TSA are pretty much always inept and when you combine them in T3 it really is a piece of work. SERENITY NOW!

    Terrible airport (Terminal 1). Had to wait together with the crowd of people for the check-in system to be back online for 2,5 hours. Then the security check for another hour. Staff was very relaxed.
