Anyone tried the F Lounge at JFK

Hi,

Will be flying JFK to ICN next January. Does anyone know if there OZ has an F lounge at JFK (maybe a Star Alliance Co-shared?) and how is it?

Thanks

You should be given a pass to the LX Hon lounge (First Class Equivalent). You'd also have access to the AI & LH lounges with your boarding pass and the LX Business class lounge.

The info on the *A lounge-finder page is not really correct, as LH does not fly out of T4 at JFK, which is the terminal that OZ uses. And I believe there's no public access between terminals airside.

LX lounge is pretty hohum, but better than sitting outside at the gate. Food's really non-existent in the LX lounge. I tend to go grab a shroom burger at Shake Shack, then move to the LX lounge.

As for the AI lounge, you're better off sitting outside in the terminal itself.

The LX first class lounge is closed at JFK for AsianaAirlines flights. Only the biz class side is open for F pax

No the LX lounge is post-security. But yes it's pretty dire.

You're 50% correct (or 50% wrong...)

The lounge USED TO BE before security. But this changed about 5 years ago. It's now AFTER security.

However, the lounge is still terrible. Food options are very poor, and it gets pretty crowded prior to the OZ flight leaving.

My last 2 trips flying out of JFK-T4, I've gone to Shake Shack to get a 'Shroom burger.
