It was interesting to me that even at 8AM the Departure Boards had so little on them to show the Europe night flights were already up.
The Admirals Club last Friday morning was similarly depressing - we were two of maybe 15 total guests. That said, my upgrade rate to/from JFK is fantastic these days (even on premium transcons), and I can't complain about never having a security line with more than two people in front of me.
