Flights from New York to Europe: the best tips from KAYAK users

Insights shared by verified travelers who flew the route from New York to Europe 
MitraFlew with British AirwaysJFK-LHRApr 2025
Get at the airport onetime. Security is very busy.
HeatherFlew with SWISSJFK-ZRHDec 2024
Very easy catching my next flight from Zurich to Cairo
KishoreFlew with ITA AirwaysJFK-FCODec 2024
Be prepared for confusion. The Delta boarding pass you get is actually not usable at JFK. You have to go to the ITA desk and get a paper ticket. Again something Delta doesn’t tell you. Poorly managed partnership
AliciaFlew with DeltaJFK-CDGNov 2024
Air France’s checking, boarding and flight crew was the best. First checked bag was free, the food was good and the flight was excellent.
PartinFlew with Austrian AirlinesJFK-VIENov 2024
Make sure to leave plenty of room for layovers
RachelFlew with American AirlinesJFK-LHRNov 2024
London Heathrow is absolutely disorganized. You need 2 hours between flights at a minimum.
Verified travelerFlew with IberiaJFK-LHRJun 2024
For people flying from New York to London I would always use British Airways. The people are so nice. I would recommend getting to the airport 3 hours early as a minimum and booking well in advance. You will need to check in 24 hours in advance online or a 2-3 hours earlier than departure at the airport. There is no other option and this is a very serious policy. The flight is very easy and enjoyable though so I definitely would recommend.
RolandoFlew with British AirwaysJFK-ATHJun 2024
Purchase one of the memory foam pillows you will not regret it. They provide one for you but it’s fairly small. Try to keep your personal item small so that you have as much room as possible for your legs.
Verified travelerFlew with Turkish AirlinesJFK-ISTAug 2024
Look for business class separate line, it’s a little farther than the regular check in line. You may miss if not paying attention
TomaszFlew with KLMJFK-AMSAug 2024
The best boarding , comfort I had from Delta Airlines. JFK airport was OK.
Verified travelerFlew with IberiaJFK-MADJul 2024
Book directly from airline, at least will have direct communication
Verified travelerFlew with IberiaJFK-MADJul 2024
Spend the money to get Global Entry that’s it
MarinaFlew with Norse Atlantic UKJFK-LGWJun 2024
Pay for a seat. Show up at airport early.
Verified travelerFlew with British AirwaysJFK-MANJun 2024
I would try and avoid for connecting flights!
JulianFlew with PLAYSWF-KEFMar 2024
Have a big meal beforehand, and bring your own snacks to Stewart Airport - there's not a lot of choice once you're there. If you have a connecting flight at Reykjavik there's a great little food market in the airport where you can stock up on snacks. Refill your water bottles downstairs. And if your'e a smoker, you'll be thrilled to know there's a smoking area within the departure gates area (to the left of the elevators that go downstairs to the bathrooms).
PaulFlew with British AirwaysJFK-LGWApr 2024
Bring your own wired headphones and two pin 3.5mm adapter if you want a decent sound experience from the in flight entertainment. If you're vegetarian, there will be an option in flight - no need to order through your booking before the trip.
CynthiaFlew with IberiaJFK-LHRMay 2024
If you have a connecting flight it can be a bit confusing. Make sure you have enough time between flights. The flight to London was great. It's the airport experience, including all the security, which stresses you out.
JordanFlew with British AirwaysJFK-LHRMay 2024
Connections can take some time to figure out at LHR. They often don’t assign connecting gate till just before boarding. So be ready for that.
Verified travelerFlew with Turkish AirlinesJFK-ISTApr 2024
Absolutely fly Turkish Airlines! The 10 hour flight felt like just a couple of hours. I couldn’t believe we were landing!
VaitsaFlew with British AirwaysJFK-LHRApr 2024
Be early and pay attention to gate changes.
MichaelFlew with IberiaJFK-CDGJan 2024
Make sure your toiletries are travel size. Check in for your flight extra early, and dress warmly, because Paris can be brutally cold in the winter.
CorinneFlew with SWISSJFK-ZRHDec 2023
Note that you have to pay extra for checked luggage on certain economy flights. Be at the airport 3 hours prior, security check can take time.
leaniepenneFlew with British AirwaysJFK-LHRJan 2024
Dress appropriate for the season and be comfortable, arrive early for checking in case there are unexpected changes or delays.
Verified travelerFlew with Norse Atlantic AirwaysJFK-CDGDec 2023
First time flying on this airline and It was a good experience.
JustinFlew with Norse Atlantic UKJFK-LGWFeb 2024
Travel in relaxed clothes. Don’t over-eat. Avoid caffeine and alcohol.
MaryFlew with Azores AirlinesJFK-FNCDec 2023
Bring your own entertainment. Be prepared for small spaces.
