Thanks for any information.
Just ask a similar question on another forum. Will update here when possible.

Was at JFK FL on the 26th. Lounge was pretty nice, although smaller than other FL I've been to. Shower water temp was fine for the 3 in my party. Maybe we don't need scolding temps but we never thought, wow I wish this was warmer. Food was solid but nothing spectacular. Champagne, regardless of brand, needs to be kept at a cooler temp. Service in the lounge is lackluster. Can't wait for them to get ORD and DFW back up and running. They are better lounges overall.

Yes you do, as you have a F ticket on an eligible route (what miles you used don't matter)
Thunderroad, jcatman and Spanish like this.

Anyone able to share an updated menu from FFD in Miami? Curious to see the new entrees. Also curious to see if platbrownguy drank all of the Johnnie Walker Blue.

Menu was the same as opening menu as recently as 1st week of December. . It was as average food as it was in October when I went.

If anyone knows how I can get email alerts again please let me know........ I have reached out to moderators and Re set all my subscriptions but nothing works. I no longer get alerts on any thread for 3 weeks now.

FFD menu at JFK

Interesting that they have sea bass. My LAX flight in early Feb has that as a choice. Does anyone have a better view of this? The ingredients are blurry but thanks for the picture.

Philadelphia Flagship Lounge

Obviously things got stopped during the worst of the pandemic in 2020…

Is there any news on when or if the Philadelphia Flagship Lounge will finally be completed and open?

Walk by the site every time I fly out of Philly. Aside from a banner announcing a Flagship Lounge, there is absolutely no evidence that what they are planning is being built.

Black sea bass can mean anything. Chilean sea bass was called Patagonian Toothfish. Black Fish was renamed Black Grouper in all Chinatown markets

I asked one of the club agents at LAX about the FL lounge and she mentioned something about last week in January.

It will be interesting to see how that goes with current Rona levels. And frankly, its going to be interesting to see how crowded the "club" side of the AC will get if the Flagship Lounge side reverts to being a Flagship Lounge.

Probably no different from pre-covid. All those who qualify for FL (domestic FS J and F flyers, qualifying Int'l J/F flyers, and non-AA/AS OWS's and OWE's will head to the FL (or the TBIT OW Lounge, although so many don't know that it's a valid option).
