🌟 VIP Lounges at JFK Airport
JFK Airport offers various VIP lounges that provide comfort, food, drinks, and exclusive services for passengers seeking a better experience before their flight. Here we tell you everything you need to know about each lounge in comparison tables, including access, hours, services, and the user experience in each lounge, so you can make the best decision in a simple and precise way.
📍 Important things before making your choice
- 🔹 You can only enter the terminal from which your flight departs. JFK operates with separate terminals, so you must choose a lounge in your own terminal.
- 🔹 Check real-time availability in your membership app.
- 🔹 Arrive early, some lounges have limited capacity and the waiting time could even exceed your boarding time, so your access is not 100% guaranteed.
- 🔹 If traveling in a group, check if there are access restrictions for companions.
- 🔹 If you prefer high-quality food, look for lounges with à la carte service.
- 🔹 In all cases, access conditions and schedules are subject to change without prior notice.
- 🔹 At the end of each comparison table, check what users say about each lounge. This will help you decide if you have the option between two or more lounges.
