About this location
On Level 4 at Gate A5, the Virgin Atlantic Clubhouse opens at 5 a.m., two hours ahead of the Air India Maharaja Lounge sharing the gate and two and a half hours ahead of the Emirates Lounge next to it. It also closes later than both, running to 11:30 p.m. against Emirates' 11:15 p.m. and Air India's 10 p.m. cutoff. That gives it the longest window of the three lounges clustered at this gate, covering both the earliest transatlantic departures and the latest arrivals back through A5. It's the only Virgin Atlantic Clubhouse at JFK, with no sibling location elsewhere in the terminal.
