But they tend to be not worth the price if I can get a nonstop into JFK and make my way down to PHL after visiting customers along the way as I make my way to/from the PHL metro area.

The PHL AA Clubs are a fail and very often crowded when I have arrived for my late afternoon nonstop flights back to SFO. The FS lounge(s) at PHL need to open ASAP. And the price points for flights inot/out of PHL tend to make me fly into/out of JFK even if I have business in the PHL area
Not disagreeing. I used to fly SFO-JFK-CLT weekly (sometimes twice). If you're in the air, by all means enjoy it.

I still wouldn't wreck my sleep over any lounge food. In this case, longer overnight is well worth it.
