Hoping some JFK locals could help me here, I didn't want to start a whole new thread topic.
For those of you that are local that have/do sit reserve, how far away from the airport do you live? I'm currently in the Islip area which is 40-50 minutes no traffic, can easily become 1.5hrs+ with traffic. Wondering if anyone lives near there and has ever had any issues. Jetblue short call is 2hrs plus 15minutes for positive contact correct? LGA a little longer?
Also where are you guys parking in JFK/LGA and what's average time from there to the terminal.
Thanks!

Exact two hour call outs are rare, if it looks tight consider calling to get short term parking approved.
You'll be fine.

JB is a NYC based airline, they understand, just call and say you're stuck in traffic.
I live in NJ, at 1:15 drive without traffic plus 30 mins to get from Long term parking to the terminal. Never had a problem.
(if they want you to get there" as soon as possible" they'll approve short term parking expense but never agree to anything less than 2 hour commute)
