Sorry you missed the joke. I didn't actually try to get in. It was more in reference to making comparisons between a lounge that grants domestic F access and one that doesn't.

Wow! Not only looks good overall, but the seating surfaces and fabrics looks much better than C. Glad to see that wasn't lost on AS.

Looks like a nice space. 2 trips through SEA in the next month (after none for about a year). Yay.

It's only flagship if you can pour your own drinks.

I always screw it up so prefer the Japanese beer machines or bartender.

Ugh - this. I'd much rather make my own coffee with the espresso machines they had than wait in a longer line for individual orders to be made or have to track someone down from the bar or front desk to come help make a coffee for me. Hopefully they still have to-go cups - I love grabbing one last coffee to bring on-board.

Well, the JFK lounge has an espresso bar and the same self-serve Starbucks machine found in the other lounges.

In the lounge right now on opening day - surprised it’s not packed on a Friday getaway day. Many open seats, but more importantly a dozen beers on tap. Honestly it’s a fantastic space - sweeping views of the runway, cheerful staff, and good food / drink options. Only nit I have is the “west coast vibe” music track playing in the background, which might make it tough to do a work call. Overall a solid addition to the lounge fleet.

Next stop SFO!

Some guests might consider that a feature, not a bug.
