Lounging around at JFK

GETAWAYS • Airports

Delta Sky Clubs have taken a beating as of late, but on a recent early morning, the newly opened Sky Club in Concourse A at JFK’s Terminal 4 was an oasis of calm, half filled with travelers, one of them quietly asleep on a couch out on the sky deck.

The downside of the location by gate A8 (former Virgin America territory, now colonized by Delta): it’s a solid 15 minute walk from the start of the B gates. So most B-gate fliers will still end up at Concourse B’s larger but more crowded Sky Club. Unless, of course, you’re skipping both for T4’s Centurion Lounge.

• EWR: Amex plans Centurion Lounge at Terminal A, to open 2026. Until then: check out first looks at the new American Admirals Club and new Delta Sky Club, both also in Terminal A.

• JFK: This week, JetBlue added three daily flights between JFK and DCA (Reagan) in Washington, D.C., its first time flying this route.  

• LGA: New Delta route from NYC to Nassau, Bahamas debuts in December.
