We never thought we would see the day that an American airport lounge could rival Emirates. But that’s exactly what happened, with the opening of the new Delta One Lounge at New York’s John F. Kennedy International Airport. It’s a game-changer for U.S. airlines.

If you’ve ever wished for a stylish, serene escape from the usual airport chaos, this lounge delivers in spades. Designed to pamper premium travelers, this lounge combines luxury, comfort, and convenience. Here’s a deep dive into what makes this lounge a must-visit.

Overview

Strategically located in Terminal 4, the Delta One Lounge caters exclusively to Delta One and SkyMiles Diamond Medallion members. The space is thoughtfully curated, with every corner introducing you to different landmarks of New York City. We’re talking chic, modern minimalist interiors and floor-to-ceiling windows that offer insane views of the bustling runway. It’s an escape that makes even layovers feel luxurious.

Food + Beverage

The lounge features a curated dining menu that rivals some of NYC’s top restaurants. There’s a dining area that is a nod to the New York brasseries for all the foodie travelers. You can try dishes like Hamachi crudo, steak tartare, and lasagne bolognese. Pair that with a bespoke cocktail from the lounge’s signature mixology bar. And if alcohol isn’t so much your thing, you can always choose to relax at the Rejuvenation Bar, which serves fruit and herb-infused waters and juices.

Amenities

The Delta One Lounge takes relaxation to a new level, way beyond the basics. There are relaxation pods for massages. You can choose rejuvenating skincare treatments from Grown-Alchemist certified therapists. And, there are private shower suites, featuring Grown-Alchemist toiletries and plush towels to match — pure bliss, and perfect for de-stressing before a long-haul flight. And if rest is what you need, the nap pods provide a cozy space to catch a quick snooze. For those traveling on business, private workstations with high-speed Wi-Fi ensure you stay connected and productive.

Details

The exclusivity is real. Delta One passengers stroll in for free, while SkyMiles Diamond Medallion members enjoy it as part of their elite perks. No day passes here, so if you’re not in the club, it’s time to start flying Delta more often.
