Is there a time limit on luggage storage?
I have a 10am arrival and 10pm departure so I'm definitely going into the city -- can I leave a bag in the storage area all day? (And, to confirm, is there even a storage area in either of the currently operational lounges?)

I am new to AA/OW this year.
Flying PHX-JFK-SJU on a paid FC ticket tomorrow.
I have PLT already earned this year and the Citi Prestige card.
I know the Prestige card gets me into the AC, but am I able to access the BA Galleries lounge based on my OW status even though I'm flying AA ticket stock/metal? If I am reading AA's page correctly I think I can.....?
I have been more than impressed with the BA Galleries lounges in LHR and JNB this year and the AC seems to suck for food, based on the one I visited in PHX.
Thanks!

I had a 12 hour layover flying international. The flagship lounge let me store my luggage so I was able to head into the city for a few hours.

In a word, no. Link.

I hope the French toast on my JFK-SJU flight is edible! ☺️
I guess I'm stuck with the AC at T8 then.

I'm flying GIG-JFK-SFO next month, arriving and departing from JFK's terminal 8. Since it's an international itinerary, is it possible for me to go to BA's first lounge on terminal 7 during my layover? Can I change terminals airside or do I need to go through security again? EXP here. Thanks.

I have nearly an 8 hour layover at JFK this coming week, flying AUS-JFK-GIG. I was just going to use the left luggage, but if the lounge will hold a bag for free, that would definitely be easier (and save me having to take it through security).
Also--anyone know if the showers get busy before the GIG flight, around 8pm or so?
I'm planning to meet a friend and swim in the ocean at Brighton Beach. I'd definitely like to shower and wash off the salt water before the long JFK-GIG leg.

Well the AA Flagship Lounge in Terminal 8 must have not received the memo, 2 weeks ago they stored my luggage for 6 hours while I went into the city. They have a luggage rack behind and to the left of the Flagship desk.

The temporary club in the B concourse is located in the second floor breezeway section (turn right after exiting the elevator) and overlooks security and the passageway to the C-concourse.
The C-Concourse AC was very crowded this past Sunday afternoon and I had to wait a few minutes for a lounge chair in the back to open up.

LAX-JFK-ZRH flight
I have an upcoming flight in J from LAX-JFK-ZRH. I haven't been to JFK in years, so I'm looking for info on potential terminal changes. The first segment is domestic, of course, followed by the international segment. I have a 2-hour layover between flights, which I assume will be plenty of time?
Will I have to go through security a second time?
