At JFK dining now. Fully stocked (no JWB but it isn’t on the menu now either). Servers indicating that new menu is coming out next week. I know AA pushes the “famous” chefs for flagship but the staff indicated that the local chef (i.e. the person who cooks everyday) is designing the menu.
Also, Andy Cohen just rolled through — order Diet Coke and the chicken (still recovering from New Years). Sat in the “bar area” and went on a loud zoom call for 45 minutes. Mostly rambling about tomorrow’s capital anniversary. PLEASE NO POLITICAL RESPONSES TO THIS POST

Take a read through this thread, the LAX FL and Flagship Dining has still not re-opened. There are mixed reports with projected opening dates varying from "early 2022" to the "end of January" depending on which employee you talk to.

Oneworld Business Lounge was closed on 12/25 when I passed through. Not sure if it was because it was xmas or just closed again.

There a post over on the oneworld forum that the lounge is closed until further notice due to "plumbing issues".

Yes, I was there on January 4 - OneWorld, Qantas, Centurion were all closed!
My Plan B was to go to the KAL Lounge - but they don't accept Priority Passes any more!
Star Alliance was accepting OneWorld passengers (BA at least).......didn't realise this as I had connected! So in the end went to Admirals Club T4, and moved to T5 as it was pretty busy.
At least I got my 10,000 steps in!

I posted this in a Help get email alerts thread but does anyone here know how to get email alerts again? I have Unsubscribed then resubscribed 3 x now and nothing. AA and FL/FFD is my fav thread but I am so behind from not getting any alerts. I am not getting any alerts from any thread for 3 weeks. I am wondering are the powers that be at FT upset b/c I have been thrashing AA for their joke of a catering lately haha. I cant figure out how to get the alerts back. Help please. Thanks

This afternoon, while at lunch when I mentioned my looking forward to my first time at Flagship Dining in a few days, my cousin, who flew from LHR to LAX via JFK in F, said that Flagship Dining was closed at JFK on Tueday Jan 4, around 1PM when he was there. It was also closed at LAX yesterday prior to his flight at 11AM.
The Flagship Lounge person at JFK told him it was because of being understaffed. He didn't bother to ask at LAX.

Yeah, went back and read after posting. LAX is clear. My concern was JFK though, which is where I am supposed to fly out of.
