The Capital One Lounge at JFK
Capital One revealed today the latest addition to its lounge network. While there’s no information yet when the lounge will open its doors, we do know that a new Capital One Lounge is coming to New York’s John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK).
The Capital One Lounge at JFK will measure 13,000 square feet, offering the most expansive tarmac views of any Capital One Lounge yet.
The lounge is located in the Retail Hall of the airport’s Terminal 4 (T4), which is operated by JFKIAT. This is a termina that already has several lounges.
The Capital One Lounge at JFK promises to give travelers a piece of New York City’s charm and provide them with an elevated travel experience that gives a taste of the diverse city right inside the airport.
Travelers will be able to order a selection of coffees and bagels from an in-Lounge bodega that will serve up New York favorites. Additionally, a specially-trained cheesemonger will offer local cheeses from artisans in the nearby Hudson Valley and New York region, alongside cured meats, housemade accompaniments, and paired wine and beer selections.
The Capital One Lounge at JFK will offer partnerships with local breweries, mixologists, coffee roasters, and bakeries to bring to life the culinary offerings of New York City. The local brewery partner will continue Capital One’s “Perfect Airport Beer” program, which challenges a local brewer to create what they believe is the perfect airport beer as an exclusive brew to be served at their respective Capital One Lounge location.
The lounge will also include works sourced from local artists, like a hanging glass sculpture from Brooklyn-based Shakúff Custom Lighting that will serve as a central focal point for the Lounge. The piece features small glass stones suspended in a cascading form to symbolize the varied and colorful experiences throughout Manhattan and, above the main bar, another glass fixture will feature a combination of hand-blown glass and brass elements that emulate branches and vegetation inherent to New York City.
The Capital One Lounge at JFK will also feature original artwork across various mediums from local artists and artisans, including original works on wood, acrylic, silkscreen prints, paintings on canvas/paper, and textile pieces.
On top of that, Capital One will bring some of the amenities that customers have come to know and love from Capital One Lounges to the new JFK location, including a full-service coffee bar, an industry-leading grab-and-go food selection, delicious, locally-sourced in-Lounge menu options served as small plates, fully stocked shower suites, high-speed Wifi, and more.
