Left luggage near JFK Terminal 4 arrivals hall

Recommended for: international leisure tourists, long layover passengers, business travelers.

So, you've just landed at Terminal 4, and you're wondering where to leave your bags. Here's the thing. Terminal 4 doesn't have traditional coin lockers, but there is a baggage storage service on the arrivals level near the carousels. It runs around the clock, which is helpful for those red-eye flights. Most international carriers land here, Delta included, so the place stays busy. If you want to skip the airport prices (they can get pricey, honestly), you can hop on the free AirTrain to Jamaica Station and find bag storage options nearby. The AirTrain ride takes about 10 minutes and connects you to the LIRR and the E, J, or Z subway lines. Bounce has locations throughout Queens for travelers who'd rather not pay terminal rates. From $3.25, you can store your stuff and head straight into Manhattan. No dragging suitcases through Times Square. Just drop, explore, and come back when you're ready for your next flight.

Bag storage options at Jamaica Station for JFK travelers

Recommended for: nyc locals flying out of jfk, international tourists heading to manhattan, students visiting family.

Jamaica Station is that spot where everything connects. You've got the LIRR, the E train, J train, Z train, plus the AirTrain that takes you straight to JFK in about 10 minutes. Millions of people pass through every year. The station itself doesn't have official lockers run by the transit authority, which catches a lot of folks off guard. But there are luggage storage options nearby through services like Bounce. Perfect if you're meeting someone in Queens before your flight, or if you arrived early and want to grab food without hauling your bags around. Each booking has $10,000 protection, so your stuff is covered. The area around Sutphin Boulevard has plenty of shops and places to eat while you wait. Way better than sitting in the airport for hours. Just book online, drop your bags, and you're free to move around until it's time to catch that AirTrain back to the terminal.

Where to find luggage lockers when flying through JFK

Recommended for: domestic leisure travelers, rideshare pickup travelers, long layover passengers, airline crew.

JFK has five terminals connected by the AirTrain, but here's what most people don't realize: actual luggage lockers don't exist inside the airport. What you'll find instead are staffed baggage storage counters at Terminal 1 and Terminal 4. Terminal 4's service is open 24/7, which helps if you're on a weird schedule. The catch? Prices run around $25 to $35 per bag, depending on size. For a family trip or a long layover, that adds up fast. Bounce offers an alternative with partner locations near the airport and along the AirTrain route. Rated 4.9 by travelers who've used it, the service lets you store bags at local shops instead of paying airport premiums. If you're connecting through different terminals or dealing with a self-transfer situation, the AirTrain is free to ride within the airport. Store once, move freely between gates. Howard Beach station connects to the A train if you're headed toward Brooklyn or Lower Manhattan. Simple as that.
