I’ve only been to JFK once, but I get the sense that the lines there always look like this. Not saying all the other stuff isn’t an issue, but don’t give JFK any credit. Hands down the worst airport I’ve been to. Avoid at all cost.
I mostly fly out of Newark. I’m not saying Newark is good, but nothing like what I saw at JFK. JFK was so bad, they had a staff member split the security line in half and escort us to another level of the airport. And the entire time at JFK people were trying to upsell us on CLEAR to skip the line.
I have never seen Newark move a security line, and I’ve never had someone try to sell me CLEAR WHILE IM ALREADY IN YHE SECURITY LINE. Never again JFK.
JFK is shit, yeah. But LAX is worse. They don’t have any designated area for overlay. You have to go through immigration, only to go through security again to get your connecting flight. And immigration is rude, like, I don’t want to enter your shitty country, you make me do it, because you apparently don’t know how to build airports.
And security takes ages, so you wait in line, while you’re called out already to board the flight. Like I DON’T WANT TO BE IN THAT LINE! I did not want to go through immigration or security or anything. I just wanted to get my connecting flight.

All three NY area airports are notoriously bad in every aspect lol.
