Check out the real world website for JFK airport. It has all the airlines for each terminal. You can find it at Wikopedia web site. They also have gate assignments for all the Terminals. Are you using this for AI Traffic or your own piloted flights? This website is also excellent for getting your afcad correctly designed for JFK for your AI traffic!

http://www.panynj.gov/airports/jfk.html You can use this link to go to actual JFK website. Click on Airport Guide and then Airport Map and then on each individual terminal for all the Airlines at that Terminal. JFK does not assign individual gates to airlines only airlines to the particular Terminal. If your doing a revised afcad just type the codes for each of the airlines at that terminal for each gate.

JFK is one of a handful of airports that, for the most part, put most US airlines in it's own terminal.  That is a general statement as US Airways and United hsare terminal 7 with BA but the others have their own.  For AA, Delta, and Jet Blue you can pretty much not worry about where what goes because even in real life it changes quite a bit.  The only rule is to ensure that the large gaes handle widebody and smaller handles express and narrow. 

Terminal 1 and the International terminal (4) are all mixed with a variety of international airlines.  As long as you assign the correct airline to the correct terminal (see Wikipedia) you can pretty much assign each gate to all airlines that belong to that terminal.  It mixes even in realy life.

The only exception to this is terminal 7 which assigns BA and the other intl airlines to certain gates and I can not recall the actual assignment.  Still the default JFK afcad from FSDT is pretty accurate.
