Which is the better Delta lounge at JFK T4? Concourse A or B?
Hi everyone! I don’t usually fly Delta but will later today on long haul business. I looked up the lounges and there seem to be two, one near Gate A8 and another near Gate B31.
I believe one of these is newer than the other but are they pretty much the same or is one preferred over the other? I’m a bit confused as to which is better. Thanks

The B30 lounge is much larger and generally better located for most connections.

A is definitely nice, but small by comparison to B. The outdoor space is nice. But the A club is definitely not worth it if you’re flying out of the B side.
Sounds like the OP had a good visit.

I'm going through JFK during "prime time" Tuesday night (getting there around 1855 and leaving at 2125). My inbound comes into the new A gates, so I intend to hit the new A8 club. If I make it that far (it looks like my onward flight goes out of B24), it will be my first time lining up in the diamond SkyClub line at B30, rather than the "ham 'n egger" line in which I used to have to stand.

Is the Virgin lounge really available to any DeltaOne passenger?

Passengers in First/Business class on China Airlines also get accesss, but they don't look to allow access for business class passengers on other Skyteam carriers.
