Great pictures, ClipperDelta!

I was at the JFK T4 club on March 16, the last trip I took before the lockdowns started happening in full force. I noticed all the renovations to this club; also, it was the first time in two years that the SkyDeck was unlocked and opened when I was there. I'm really glad that they didn't put a roof over the deck; I think the roof at the ATL F SkyDeck ruined its ambience.

JFK looks like the airport from the Langoliers; a literal ghost town. Looks like you had the club almost all to yourself ClipperDelta.

Very different from my recent ATL experience.

Delta seems to be routing connections through ATL right now, so that would explain it.

update on SEA?

SO for those looking to purchase entrance, you may want to verify what you’re getting for you $$$
If anyone has any update on SEA Sky Club, I'd love to hear.
Any packaged meal items, like salad, wrap, protein?
What about Ivar's chowder?

Since DL serves packaged Luvo wraps onboard, I'd love it if they had them available at Sky Club during Covid era.

Those pictures look seriously empty and sad, although the Caesar salad looks good in the case.

I think the old CRC lounge is actually The Club now.

I was there last weekend (June 6th) and they had some "prepackaged" items, but nothing as substantial as a Luvo wrap. They did have some halfhearted attempts at sandwiches - individually wrapped halves of a couple of different ham/etc, as well as some things like kind bars and almonds. Individual cans of soda and OJ were available grab and go as well.

No chowder, or anything else that would need to use a common utensil to serve - only prepackaged items.

JFK was similar - I was there for breakfast and they had individual containers of yoghurt, donut holes (three to a small box), and things like that.

When I was there last Friday afternoon most of the gates in the A concourse were active. I think B and C were shutdown; there was some activity at D and a couple of flights out of F.

Pretty sure C is still active. T, B and E are pretty much dead.

This is so sad to see. I am glad people are not flying, and staying home and staying safe, but what a jarring image to see.

I think it will be a long time before flying returns to normal. I may do one flight this Summer, and then none until next spring at the earliest. I am hoping to go to a work conference in Prague next Summer, as well as a trip to England in the Summer. Maybe one or two other events as well - a trip to Dallas perhaps, but pretty much anywhere in my time zone (EST) I would prefer to drive to at this point instead of fly.

I've been on four flights in the last few weeks and the airports I've been in look very crowded but not packed. People are flying and one of my flights (Delta partner)was completely full. The sky club in LAX-2 had about 20 people at least steadily from 8am -11am both times I was there.. The hotel I was at wasn't packed but very crowded on memorial day weekend with pool parties. So, people are definitely traveling.

Is alcohol for purchase (champagne, wine, liquor) available in the ATL SkyClub now?

The complimentary stuff is definitely available. I did not see any menus or higher quality items displayed however it's possible they are still available. I didn't ask and didn't see anyone asking.

Anyone have any experience with Breakfast options at Sea Tac ? Are Sky Clubs reducing prices as a result of limited service?
