Idk, baggage claim, security, check-ins, etc...

Thanks for any little tip!
The one thing I would add to what the others have said so far is that you will clear immigration and customs at JFK, even if you are connecting to LAS that same day. After you exit the plane you will see signs that say Arriving Passengers and Connecting Passengers. Just follow the ones that apply to you and you should be fine.
