Frequently asked questions

How do I know if I can get into a lounge at John F. Kennedy International Airport?
Select the airline status or lounge membership you hold, plus your flight details, in the checker on this page. Each lounge below shows every current entry rule and the reasoning behind it, sourced and dated. Card-granted access is not selectable yet; where a card grants you a lounge membership, select that membership instead.
What if I do not hold any status or membership?
The lounges below still show every rule that exists, including card rules and cabin rules, so you can see what would get you in, plus any pay-at-the-door option where one exists.
How fresh is this data?
Every lounge and rule carries its own last-verified date and source link. Rows not re-verified in over six months show an amber flag rather than a silent green check.
