Since the lounge (Virgin Clubhouse) is landside, is it possible to check-in there? On the Virgin site, discussing their UpperClass lounges in general, it says 'Check-in at lounge for passengers with hand baggage only where possible'. This raises two questions: (1) Is JFK one of the 'where possible' locations? and (2) If they do it for their own pax, can / will they do it for SQ's as well?

If it's not possible to check-in online or at the lounge, does anyone know when the F check-in actually opens? Three hours before departure?

cheers,

There is a lounge attendant posted at the door of the VC asking for your ticket/BP so I believe that check-in at the counter is necessary. I have taken SQ25 often, and there is always an agent at the counter 2+ hours before the flight. There is a dedicated FC line that never has a queue...
