1> Purchase a separate ticket from ORH to JFK on B6. It gets in at 7:29AM. Will that be enough that be enough time to grab luggage, transfer to CX terminal, check in, drop off bags and go through security? Will B6 check bags all the way to HK thru interline agreement?
2> Rent a car and drive to JFK. It will be a 2.5 hour ride.

I'm from Newton. Sturbridge is a bit of a drive from Worcester.

Good decision. I'd plan to drive, just in case of snow.
