What is the transfer like between T7 and T8?
Unfortunately, the only oneworld lounge open at JFK is the AA Admirals Club at T8 so there is no other alternative. If you have AMEX Platinum you could use the Centurion Lounge at Terminal 4 or if you hold PriorityPass you could visit the Air France Lounge in Terminal 1.
To go to the AA Lounge;
You need to take the AirTrain from Terminal 7 to Terminal 8 after checking-in at Terminal 8.
You need to clear security at Terminal 8, and head to the AA Lounge.
After enjoying the lounge, you need to go landside, take the AirTrain back to Terminal 7.
Clear security for the second time at Terminal 7 and board your BA flight.
