SFO Clubhouse Opening Hours
Quick query, what are the operating hours of the Virgin Atlantic Clubhouse at SFO. The hours listed on the VX website don't seem to match up with the departure times of the VS flight to London. Is the info on the VX website totally out of date.
Example, VX website states operating hours of 4pm to 7.15pm on a Saturday but the only VS flight of the day to LHR departs at 4.30pm, so I would guess the Clubhouse would be open from around 1pm - 1.30pm.
Only asking because I have a 4.25pm VX departure but I'll be getting dropped off at SFO just after lunchtime and was hoping to kill a couple of hours in the Clubhouse.

I think the more reliable information is to look at the VS departure time from SFO that day. The lounge has to be open for the premium passengers on that flight. I'm guessing that the lounge will be open not long after you arrive at SFO. I've been on that VS flight four times and it's always been between 4-5 pm.
BTW, just landside and to the left of security at International Terminal A is a fun little aviation museum. You might like to kill a little time in it.

Now that VX has moved to its new home, it's my understanding that the VS Clubhouse is no longer available - ISTBC?
As to opening hours, it tends to open 4 hrs before VS flights to the UK.

Still available according to the VX website;

Opening hours are in the afternoon and early evening ( but the clubhouse opens before then for the VS flight to LHR)
