Latest flight out of NYC

[yuds70]

I have a good friend which is a Rabbi of a synagogue in London and he must be in NY for a Thursday night wedding (July 21) and as well be back in London before shabbat starts at 9 pm. Since the circumstances call for it he is ready to pay any amount that is still reasonable to make it happen. He wouldn't leave before 10-11 pm from Brooklyn in all cases. He is willing and ready to drive to any city in the east coast and fly into any city in Europe that will make it in time. Thank you.

Google NYC-LON and you will get a list of flights. The latest flight is Norwegian at 11pm JFK-LTN or BA at 1055pm.
In the morning the earliest flight is BA 755am and arrives in London at 745pm.

Those times don't work he can't leave Brooklyn till 10:30 pm and arriving international an hour and fifteen minutes before shabbat won't give enough time to make it unless someone here knows a helicopter company that can transport him to Golders Green area in time.... thanks anyway

If a stop is fine, maybe he can make TAP 11:30pm flight work.

Air France has an 11:30 PM from JFK to CDG and XL Airways has an 11:55 PM on the same route

And connect to the 2:00 BA that lands at LHR 2:25 PM. Shabbos is not till 8:47

I was going to say, you want to find the latest flight out to Europe on Thursday night and connect from there to London on Friday afternoon although you'll be cutting it close by leaving the wedding after 10:30 and by arriving at your stopover after midday on Friday. Make sure the stopover is somewhere where you can stay for Shabbos if the need were to arise.

XL Airways is actually decently priced for a OW at $550.

And what's the latest one can show up to JFK security without baggage before an XL airways flight?

I've shown up at JFK with baggage 47 minutes before an international flight. Without baggage, and if he can check in and print out his boarding pass beforehand, then 30 minutes should be enough if he can get though security quickly. Getting through security quickly can obviously be a big YMMV though.

doesnt turkish air have a very late flight?

doesnt turkish air have a very late flight?

They do. Leaves JFK at 11:55P.
Gets into Istanbul at 4:45P, 1-2 hour layover, then 4 hours back from Turkey to London.

Not enough time to get home before Shabbos.

Exactly. Ukraine has an even later flight at 12:30, but the backtracking kills it.

Just arrange for the flight to divert to London

I'm curious if a year later__anyone can figure out a way to leave 10:30pm Brooklyn, get into Golders Green by 8pm Friday.

7am BA flight?

[JACKBLUE]

7am BA flight?

iinm its 755 and arrives to LHR at 745 pm

[hvaces42]

Latest arrival ive seen recently was 732. Probably still not enough time. There is no solution to this with leaving Brooklyn at 1030.

Whilst on the topic, seems like AA started a new flight at 10:25am. I haven't had a chance to find out how frequent it is though.
