JFK T1 - VIPOne
Just tried the new VIPOne option at T1 JFK. For those of you with priority pass, it’s free and it’s a complete game changer. Nobody seemed to be using it (so I hope it lasts), but it saved me at least 40 minutes. You have a private space to get your trays ready for security, then you go straight to a dedicated TSA agent before the VIPone staff member walks you right to the front of the line for an X Ray machine. Amazing! Especially at a terminal where security is chaos.

That said VIPOne is really great and it's worth PP just for this perk if one uses T1 fairly regularly.

Honestly, with the VIPOne service and TSA pre-check, it was the easiest experience I’ve had at a US airport when not flying LP.
I went straight to the front of the line and was able to use all my pre-check benefits. Fantastic!

I believe so! Depending on which card provider issues the priority pass you can bring more or less guests. But I think, regardless, you should at least have access to VIPone for yourself with any PP subscription.

Went yesterday - completely empty. Felt super awkward though. With CLEAR at least, there’s another line and you sort of merge with other pax. Here the woman took my bags, inserted herself at the FRONT of the line and put my trays in right before the scanner. Was a bit embarrassed, but it did save a lot of time.
