Wooooohooo.
I sit here on the floor near the international arrivals of terminal 8 at JFK. My wife is already in American airspace. Just a few more hours and she will be here.

After landing it took her 15 mins to get through immigration. But it look longer for her bags to appear. They both were inspected she had some canned goods from the Philippines. So about an hour after landing. She made it through. Now she's home in Miami.
If anyone is traveling from Asia take advantage of Cathay fares being cheap. It was so cheap I did a milage run on Delta to complete my medallion status for next year and still saved money compared to other airlines.
Cathay was 527$
Delta round trip 200$
Delta one way 100$
Total 827~
Paid with my Delta amex for the free bags on those cheap basic economy seats.
Next cheapest ticket was 1200+ and a month out I guess being so close to the holidays. And Cathay Pacific being cheap due to the unrest in Hong Kong. (Airport is safe)
She mentioned the flight didn't have a lot of people too so a lot of space to lay down.
