Frequent flyers of Virgin Atlantic Upper Class take note, because you´ll want to check in early at the airline´s new Uptown Lounge at JFK Airport where a bar, brasserie and business facilities are complemented by contemporary design and a Bumble & Bumble spa for last minute haircuts or relaxing Dr. Hauschja treatments.
Just like every Virgin Atlantic Clubhouse, there’s no mistaking which city it lives in. This is a space that oozes Uptown style and sensibilities. The moment you walk in from the distinctive reception area, you’ll be transported into a world of graceful elegance, with cascading, shimmering golden ceilings of lighting, and soft, decadent textures.
This clubhouse has it all. As all Virgin Atlantic flights from JFK depart in the evening, it will probably come as no surprise that at the heart of the new lounge is a sultry, uptown cocktail bar. And If you’re in a playful mood, the entertainment zone has a fabulous red ball sofa. It’s a fun place to lie back, make new friends, and watch the world go by.
While you can order food anywhere in the Clubhouse, if you’d prefer a more formal dining experience, take a seat in the brassiere dining area, where you’ll be served a delicious selection of a la carte meals, desserts and fine wine.
And even the JFK features the very first Clubhouse Spa, with Iconic New York hairstylist Bumble & Bumble and a unique spa collaboration with skincare specialists, Dr Hauschka. A brand perfectly suited to night time flying, their naturally beautiful products and relaxing approach to health and wellbeing will assist with passengers sleep on board. And once you’ve enjoyed all the delights of the spa, the intimate relaxation areas offer some really unique spaces to enjoy some ‘me’ time. In a quiet corner of the Clubhouse, person sized round cavities have been created in the walls, lined with wool, with intimate lighting, perfect if you’ve had a hard day and want to retreat to your own private place.
It´s Located – beyond the TSA checkpoint, in the A-Concourse and above boarding gates A4 and A5.
