My question is: in people's experience, at JFK Terminal 5, how long from a plane's arrival at the gate does it take for the baggage to arrive at the baggage claim?
Look forward to your answers.
On my one J trip to JFK about 18 months ago the bags came very quickly. It's only a five minute walk from the gate to the baggage hall. Don't think we waited more than ten minutes for bags. Possibly less. It was certainly very efficient as I remember it.
