Closure of the Lufthansa Lounges in New York on 16. August

Renovation works at New York’s John F. Kennedy Airport: we will be extending and modernising the Lufthansa Senator Lounge, with its integrated First Class Area and Business Lounge, until early 2009. This extensive building work has been under way since the beginning of the year.

To make sure the lounges will open on time and to offer you the greatest possible level of comfort as promptly as possible, the lounges will be closed from 16 August until the end of the year. In the meantime, you can use alternative lounges in Terminal 1. These lounges are located behind the security checkpoint and offer a place to relax before your flight. Vouchers for the lounges will be handed out at the Lufthansa check-in counters.

From January 2009, you can expect a generous choice of lounges on three different levels: there will be a completely new Senator Lounge, as well as an exclusive First Class Area with an integrated Pre-Flight Dinner area, spanning more than 700 square metres on the second and third levels. On the first level, you’ll be invited to relax in a comfortable Business Lounge in the new Lufthansa design, also spanning more than 700 square metres.
