Admirals Club closed; Alaska Lounge open
Flew yesterday (17-Dec) and LAX Admirals Club T4 still closed with to-go bags of chips and cookies, plus coffee. They made it sound like the closure will last for quite some time due to local health restrictions (into January, anyway). Terminal does have a decent amount of vendors operating compared to my last trip so there are other food options available for purchase.

Yes. Or any of the myriad of other restaurants in PHL that from the looks of it (and certainly from the pungent smell) are still open.
You can also still order food and drink at the bar (what else is the incidental fee credit useful for these days?) and consume it in the club.

BTW, if you happen to be in the new MSY airport, the new Priority Pass "Club at MSY" is near the AA gates and is reasonably nice (decent bar, nice decor, modest food).

Visited the JFK Admirals Club this evening. Full bar open (though sadly no Krug on offer). Typical food spread out, including prepackaged salads and crudite; only wish servings were larger. Guacamole and soup bars were open as of our arrival at 4:30. Friendly and attentive staff as always! Be sure to generously tip bartenders these days; I can only imagine the hit they’ve taken.

Wait is this a joke or....? Since when does AA offer Krug in the Admirals lounge? hahaha if anything I always thought the Flagship lounge self pour average champagne (pre covid) was better than anything in the admirals lounges...

Had to laugh at the below expiry notice I received in my AA Wallet. Why notify me about something that is expiring which is impossible to use? I had emailed AA a couple months ago about extending these FFD coupons. They replied, they had no intention to extend the date.

In general, it is nice to see the Admirals Clubs getting closer to normal. Went through CLT on Sunday morning and it was nice to see self service breakfast items back again. Other than the "sanitized for your protection" signs on the seating and the majority of customers wearing masks, it is starting to feel like normal. Now if some of the closed facilities like STL, DFW E, DCA original AC club, etc. open up it will really be great. I especially want STL to open since most of the airports I fly through have multiple clubs so one being close is not a problem
