Was told there would be a fine from some fed agency if they did that. Not sure if true on all this as far as fines, but just telling you my experience as far as MCT time issue.
I did not see a date when this was happening, but - maybe just skip JFK anyways and take a different connection? By the way, MCT is not 120 minutes based on this date in January.
