I know it's not in JetBlue's current vision (at least not to my knowledge), but I would imagine that at this points, clubs in key airports would be a good thing.
(Perhaps same is true for WN).

Meh....I don't really need the free beer or potato chips. Free WiFi is already provided or available from the airport at most B6 hubs.
Unless I was looking for an office space I'm not sure what value the lounge would provide, and even lounges with a quiet enough space to work are harder to find these days.
What feature of a VIP lounge do you think would be compelling?

Lounges in the US are pretty crappy so JetBlue would need to do something really new. T5 at JFK feels like a giant lounge to me, no need for a lounge!
Maybe a business center with private offices and meeting rooms that one could rent ad hoc would make more sense than cheap wine and chips.

As sbm12 alluded to before, I've always thought B6 should do a business center w/ cafe to help attract more business people. Its not always about taking care of business as it is having a quiet place to do so.
