KAYAK’s top tips for finding a cheap flight from New York to Lilongwe

  • John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK), located to the southeast of downtown Manhattan is one of the three international airports serving New York City and the 13th-busiest airport in the U.S. Passengers are discouraged from walking between terminals due to the busy nature of the roads inside the airport loop. Nonetheless, you can use sidewalks. You can also comfortably walk between terminals that are closer together, e.g., Terminals 1 and 2, or Terminals 4 and 5.
  • JFK boasts numerous shopping stores at every terminal where you can find all travel and personal essentials including designer apparel, electronics, beauty products, and luxury goods. Terminal 5 is debatably the best place to find exceptional stylish, spacious, and sunlit shopping and dining options.
  • Do you need to rest for a while at JKF before jetting off? The airport has comfortable seats where you can lean back, stretch, and doze off for some time. However, it can be somewhat bumpy due to the stiff armrests and noise in the vicinity. There’re some sleeping pods at Terminal 5 offers, which you can access at favorable charges. Else, check out the TWA hotel for better comfort.
  • Lilongwe International Airport (LLW) has two lounges accessible by all passengers regardless of what airline you are flying - Ndege Business Class Lounge and Cloud Nine Lounge. Ndege Business Class Lounge is located in the main Terminal on the Airside at Level 1; while Cloud Nine Lounge is located at the Departure Hall. Both lounges offer various services to their customers including refreshments, cold and hot snacks, wall-mounted TV screens, reading materials, and free Wi-Fi.
  • LLW provides convenient and comfortable service to all passengers who require special individual assistance. There’re sufficient wheelchairs available for all passengers. However, it’s recommended that you contact your carrier for more personalized assistance.

Lost suite case and pillow that’s used by senior and they didn’t leave it at the airport

I had a comfortable seat that makes my trip wonderful. I appreciate the Ethiopia crew, they were very helpful

i send you separate claim of what happens ,I buy ticketed from you and you said that it is confirmed and shall send the ticket in 24 hrs but you did not send and when we go to Ethiopian air line counter they say it is pending and we dont know why ,and we forced to buy another ticket ,and this all because Ethiopian air lines canceled the return flight from Adi Ababa to Amman, please note that we buy all the tickets through your app and hold you responsible for all loss and discomfort.

United was best airlines I have seen since I got there choose united airlines

It was wonderful best Air lines covert and all very happy with their service they have been very helpful and friendly

No Asian Vegetarian food was available on this sector but only fish and chicken and pasta were offered.

For Vegetarian Food was very poor. Though we had opted for Asian Vegetarian Food they didn’t serve but only what was available was served. We were offered Smoked Salmon!

It was very bad experience with Ethiopian airlines . The flight was delayed in both ways . On the way coming back one of the crews dropped hot coffee on my whole body and other crew dropped used dirty glasses on top of me . The same crew that dropped hot coffee on me hit me with the food trolley on my knee while I was sleeping . I couldn’t sit properly due to the pain on my knee caused by those irresponsible crews . Very unprofessional airlines

Flight was delayed an hour. Also, I bought an extra legroom seat online; but the actually plane was a different configuration so I didn't get what I paid for . This happened on the Addis to Lusaka leg of my trip.

My experience was great. The flight attendants were very helpful and nice, and the food was very good.

Got delayed for over 24 hours. Fight was cancelled. Was put up at a nice hotel whose kitchen was unfortunately not prepared for the sudden influx of guests The headphone jacks on the seat were loose and sound kept getting dropped over the headphones. Food was good though. Certain items (Amarula) were not available for purchase over the on-plane duty free. Had been told i would pick my luggage at my final destination*wrong* had to pick it up in JFK and recheck it and then got charged for it**** too tired to argue with the Delta staff on the issue.... after a 15 hr flight.

This one is not bad even it is late, but they apologize and every time they announced the update.

I’m very disappointed for this trip and I will never travel again in this airline. In addition, I don’t recommend to any human being to travel to Kenya Airways. They keep me at Nairobi for 4 days without care. I was at Nairobi from 6 a.m Morning up to 10 a:m Thursday. For that reason, I have trouble for my work and may be I will lose my job. During for those 4 days I didn’t have my medicine, I didn’t have clothes to change because all my clothes were in my checked bags. On Thursday, when I got flight, they don’t even apologize for all consequences I had. During for those 4 days, I learned many things for this airline. It is their system to treat passengers like this because they had hundreds or thousands passengers around Nairobi waiting for their flights after their original flights cancelled. If I lose my job, I planned to file claim to the airline. This is not airline to travel with.

They weight duty free goods at check in and count the weight as carry on luggage. Results : for 4 bottles I had to opay $150. rip off. Be careful to avoid any duty free shopping at Dubai airport

The boarding was fast, the food was great; however, the seats & leg space were tight.

I enjoyed my flight I arrived safe with all my luggage

No complaints just improve on the food service. Provide enough dinner. People are complaining about that.

Was very good, was happy with the way staff were smiling and how they were approachable

A child was loud throughout which made the trip less than optimal. Crew was great and professional. They need to change the automatic seat belt announcement which is too loud and had other unneeded words like "this is XYZ announcement number one'

Love the dreamliner plane. It's such a smooth ride, I don't notice that it's 15 hours in the air. The staff are great and they don't overstuff you with food.
