In October the Admirals Club in JFK had the bar open, as well packed food at the self service buffet available (noodle salads, cheese cubes and similar stuff) - so the Admirals Club in JFK (and most likely in LGA) is back to snacks and also bar service. Despite the website stating 'Only pre-packaged food and bottled water will be available, per local restrictions.'
The poster for the Guacamole was in a corner, but I was there outside their operation times.
The Flagship lounge in JFK is still closed.

Wow. The Admiral's Club offerings in ORD, while still far-behind the Pre-COVID days, are way better than what is being offered in the United Club @ ORD right now...only packaged junk food when I was there a few weeks ago.

An AC sign in one of JustSomeFlyer's photos says to "maintain space between others". Taken literally, that is blaming me for something outside my control. It's not my job to make sure stranger A stays 6 feet from stranger B. I think they should have said to "maintain space from others" or "maintain space between yourself and others".

Or they could have printed, "if you're worried about spacing during air travel, perhaps don't fly yet" haha. I'm guessing your grammar comment was a joke, and this is, as well.

The "yourself (and)" is understood, as that is to whom it is addressed.

MIA D30 at around 2:30pm just before boarding a Flagship F Transcon, really nothing in the way of food. A dismal bar selection and that was pretty much it. Honestly AA’s ground product for premium transcons these days is not good.
Luckily I spent the preceding 3 hours in the far superior Centurion Lounge.
