Delta at JFK
 

Hi all,

I am connecting NCE>JFK>MKE. Once I clear immigration and customs, what’s the easiest way to get from T4 to T2?

I’m a DTW or ATL guy so this will be my very first international connection at JFK!! 🙂

The gateside JFK Jitney will be your best option; here's some recent threads (there are many more) on this topic:

Super helpful. Thank you!

Unless your flight is in the next couple days, you won't know which terminal your JFK-MKE flight will depart from. While it can depart from T2 sometimes, Flightaware shows that most of the time this flight departs from the RJ gates near the end of T4.

First of all, how do you know your connection is departing from T2? There is a whole RJ area in T4, and unless the flight is literally tomorrow you can't know now what terminal the flight will use. (Even if it is tomorrow and showing T2 "C gates" it is likely to change.)

Second of all, with upcoming T1-T3 reconstruction, there is no longer easy landside access to T2 anyway, so you have to use the JFK Jitney, which departs from gate B18. Super convenient and quick.

Thanks for that info. I just assumed because I recently flew that JFK-MKE route and we departed from T2. But I’m glad it could be T4! 🙂 That would be awesome.

Assuming you are in business, If you do fly from 4, then attempt to enter the VS Clubhouse...most likely you will be unsuccessful. I was fortunate to gain access a number of years ago as I flew business, PRG to JFK on DL. Even though it was not a valid routing to access Clubhouse. I played dumb and prrsented my DL boarding pass. The agents (appparently ignoring the PRG signifier) and (swayed by) my description that their club was like Gucci compared to Delta's Target-like club, they granted me access! YMMV!

Definitely don’t waste your time trying this, the VS clubhouse is quite far out of the way.

Make sure you check this after you land too as it is subject to change even within a few hours.

Best bet is go back through security at T4 and look at the board....if it turns out it is T2 then take the Jitney

I find that the DL alerts on the mobile app are very good about sending push notifications on gate changes (along with delays, boarding, etc.). I also use TripIt/Concour and FlightAware's similar services.

Does DL still have a jitney bus from B18 to B54 at T4 ?

I saw the jitney bus at A9 (or so) today. Not sure of the exact route, but my guess is that it still hits B18 and B54.
