Alaska Lounge
John F. Kennedy International · New York
Guide by Lounge Frog
Details checked
At a glance
One of three lounges in Terminal 7, ranking 2nd among them. An airline lounge with food and drink worth arriving early for and coffee made by a person rather than a button — though the Wi-Fi and power can't be relied on. It seats around 90 and pours beer and wine. It opened in 2018. Somewhere to sit down and charge a phone, not to linger. Recorded access options include Alaska Lounge and oneworld Sapphire/Emerald Lounge Access. Entry conditions and availability apply.
