What terminal is Delta Air Lines at JFK?

Delta Air Lines uses Terminal 4 at JFK Airport. Flight numbers starting with DL depart from Terminal 4, which has 48 gates. Delta Air Lines is a SkyTeam member, so partner check-in desks and lounges in Terminal 4 follow the alliance. Terminal assignments shift during the New Terminal One rebuild, so the live board is the tiebreaker on the day. Arrivals work slightly differently to departures.

Which terminal does Delta Air Lines arrive at JFK?

Delta Air Lines arrives at Terminal 4, the same terminal it departs from. Meeting someone off a flight means heading to Terminal 4 arrivals rather than the departures level, and international arrivals take longer than the landing time suggests because passengers clear immigration and baggage first. Track the inbound flight on the live Delta Air Lines arrivals board and leave for the airport once it has actually landed. Left something on board? That goes to Delta Air Lines, not the airport; the JFK lost and found guide routes it. If you are the one flying out instead, the next question is usually about the lounge.

Is there a lounge for Delta Air Lines passengers at JFK?

Terminal 4 has lounges, including at least one in the Priority Pass network, so Delta Air Lines passengers have a route in via a business or first class ticket, airline status, a credit card with lounge access, a Priority Pass membership, or a paid day pass where one is sold. Which of those actually opens a door is the part most guides skip: can you get into a JFK lounge.
