Why quiet decides the pick at JFK
John F. Kennedy International has 26 lounges in our directory and 23 of them are photographed and scored on peace and quiet. Quiet scores reward lounges with low ambient noise, no blaring televisions and enough separation from the boarding-call speakers to actually rest. This ranking sorts those 23 by their quiet score alone, with the overall rating breaking ties, so a lounge that is merely fine everywhere else can still win here.
