Departing from John F. Kennedy International Airport: before you fly

Finding your departure terminal is the first step. Here is what to plan for at John F. Kennedy International Airport from the moment you arrive to catch your flight.

  1. Check-in and bag drop — arrive early (typically two hours before short-haul flights, three before long-haul). Desks are in the departures hall of your airline's terminal, and bag drop usually closes 45–60 minutes before departure.
  2. Security screening — after check-in, head through security. Have liquids and electronics ready to place in trays, and allow extra time at busy periods.
  3. Passport control — for international departures you pass border control after security, before reaching the departure gates.
  4. Gates and boarding — check the screens for your gate (it may be a walk or a shuttle ride away) and your boarding time. Boarding typically starts 30–45 minutes before departure and gates close early.
