Judy's Corner - Questions, Ideas, Whatever! From Gloucester, VA

OK, OK from JFK -- jcarolek

Well, it appears the TSA folks in Richmond were the only ones who were all gung ho about the whole "scanning and patting" of this questionable traveler.  I was asleep before we took off from Richmond and awoke just seconds before a gentle touchdown in JFK.  And even though I had to leave one concourse area and catch a shuttle to another from which my plane will leave for Burbank, CA, I did NOT have to go through another security checkpoint.....

But I gotta tell you, this is one dirty airport!  What's up with THAT?   And I find it weird that there is no place for passengers to sit at the gate...instead, we sit in a food court, just like in a mall or something.  This must just be a Jet Blue thing, because I don't recall JFK beng this way when I flew into here with USAir...but what do I know????

OK, OK, what I know is....there are a LOT of people in this place...and a LOT of pizza, and someone singing in italian on some kind of piped music...at least, when he is not being overwhelmed by the airport announcements!  Oh, and I know I got a really good nap on the way from Richmond here, so I feel quite refreshed (I never did go to bed last night, so a nap was in order!)

And I ALSO know I have about two hours until my next flight leaves....and the REAL "fun" begins...so COME ON all you NYC bloggers!   Come have some pizza at the Jet Blue terminal in JFK!!!! LOL

LOL madcat...well, this way, we just don;t get settled in...we just hang out in the food court and accept wherever they tell us to go when it's time to go....

Never flew jet blue.
Normal airlines have nice waiting rooms. Ask on return trip abt directions to area, prior to take off.
JFK is only nice airport on east coast, from experiences.
The pizza is in a food court but cafe area is much more condusive to normalcy.
Ask, never assume there ; NY is too international to cater to anyone unaware of the set up- ask... ask.. reserve a table if necessary to avoid main concourse.
Sorry , thought you were accustomed to the airport.
If a lay over, arrange something in advance.

Sorry jc.

LOL bengal!...you have no responsibility over JFK! Actually, I DO think this was a Jet Blue thing, because I know I was there last August or September and it was very different...but I was flying USAir then. Anyway, it was very odd, but I survived!
