| 1. Author: Big T Par Date: Wed 25th Sep 2024. 16:35 Wondering if Any of you guys have travelled through JFK and got a connecting flight from terminal 4? I`ve booked flights to Nashville and was assuming that the cases would go straight through to the final destination, but apparently, you have to collect your luggage and go through security again. Got a couple of hours from landing to the onward journey, just wondering if anyone had any experience of what it`s like. Cheers guys Reply |
| 2. Author: Bandy Date: Wed 25th Sep 2024. 16:37 I did it once AGES ago - maybe 1997 - Sept 11. And even then yeah, bags needed to be collected and rescanned. It was annoying. Reply |

| 4. Author: Johan_Cruyff Date: Wed 25th Sep 2024. 18:18 All depends on day of week and time of day - the TSA and immigration folks wont care about your connection and will be in no hurry - 2 hours should be enough - you need to get your bags to clear customs and then make sure you drop them in the CORRECT area of drop off - they`ll kindly advise you if you dont :-) Ive done it regular over the years and never missed a 2 hour connection once - cut it fine a couple of times but always seemed to work out. You`ll love Nasville its such a cool place - we drive there realtively often for a weekend  Reply |

| 6. Author: Johan_Cruyff Date: Wed 25th Sep 2024. 18:46 Tues-Thurs are the `quieter days` - you should be good most of the business travellers would be getting the 7-8pm flights if they`re heading home I learned the more I worry and stressed I get in the airport its a vicious cycle - 2 hours will for sure be enough Reply |

| 18. Author: veteraneastender Date: Thu 26th Sep 2024. 15:02 "Not a country fan, in the slightest, but will visit the HOF for sure mate" An acquired taste in my case. The names given to popular genres are just music industry pigeon holes for separating different styles. Many top name artists in other fields are comfortable in Country Music circles. Keith Richards for example makes no apologies. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n2zbvtswcao Post Edited (Thu 26 Sep 15:34) Reply |
