Hi VJers,

Quick question because now I am starting to stress out. I haven't been to JFK in over 15 years and that was for lay-overs.

Is there just one door for all International flights or people going through customs?

I know at Dullus and Reagan there are SEVERAL doors. Miami there is just ONE door for international flights.

How will I know where to go? Will it be the same, where his luggage will come out on the terminal belk outside of the doors, or will he be getting his luggage before he goes through customs? So I won't know what door he walks through.

Completely stressed out because he won't have a cell phone and doesn't speak English very well so I am afraid he won't find someone to help him either.

JFK is a HUGE airport as oppose to Cuba where it has One door for all Flights.

I am not sure how it work in New York, but I had the same worry for my husband when he first came here. He had to switch fights in Miami and then travel to Chicago with no phone and no English skills. Make sure he has U.S. cash on him so he can buy food and make a call at the pay phone if needed. I think my husband asked someone if he could use their cell and he paid them $5 and he called me. I would make sure your hubby has your number and any family members numbers on him. My husband went through customs in Miami and then got his baggage and then went to his flight to Chicago. I think you guys should plan to meet at the baggage claim. Then you know a landmark to expect him at. Also tell him if he can't find the baggage claim to go to an airport employee and ask them for someone to help. There is usually someone somewhere that speaks Spanish that can direct him.

I know you guys have been waiting awhile to be together. I have seen your posts. Congrats on finally getting him here! :) Good luck with the trip!

ah - I know I told him to ask someone if he could use their phone if needed. It's a direct flight to New York from Havana so I will just ask around at the airport as I am sure he will be in customs for a little while.

Thanks for the kind words- it has been a LOOOONG Journey for us but it just goes to show you - that everything happens for a reason and at the right time.
