If you're arriving by car you can get dropped off directly to the hotel; the motorcourt usually has a number of classic 1960s vehicles parked out front.
If you are taking the AirTrain, go to the JetBlue Terminal 5 and look for the signs. You take a quick elevator ride then take the skybridge across. (This is how you will get to Terminal 8 for your flight.)
