I wasn't aware that the AZ lounge was being/had been refurbished.
Do you mean the AF lounge, which was recently refurbished?

That said, works are underway at FCO (Dolce Vita) & there have been changes at LIN recently, too. With regards to the other above mentioned outstations, one would hope (in an ideal world) that the refurbishment of the JFK lounge would get some sort of priority over NAP & CTA.G

I was at the AZ lounge in mid January and it was pretty sad, not as bad as the KE lounge, but it cannot compete with the AF lounge. I second AlicorporateUK that it has some priority in the refurbishment roster.

When does the new JFK lounge open?
I saw on Alitalia's website that a Casa Alitalia is coming to JFK. Is there any speculative date on when that will open?
I am planning on going to Rome in January 2017, potentially routing through JFK since they usually suspend the BOS-FCO route in winter. The old Alitalia lounge was pretty bad, but I'd be interested in visiting the new one.
EDIT: Saw that my post got merged into this thread. Sorry about that, searched first and didn't see this.

I'm at the JFK AZ lounge right now and it's definitely the old one. I asked the lounge dragon and she said "soon" but then said it's been "soon" for a year, so who knows...
She seemed to think it would be in the same space the current lounge is in. Given that they clearly haven't broken ground on renovations here as of today, it might be a while.
