Verdict
The Centurion Lounge at JFK remains one of the best domestic lounges. The food alone justifies arriving early.
The Centurion Lounge at JFK's Terminal 4 recently underwent a major renovation, nearly doubling its footprint. But with the new guest access fees and growing crowds, is it still the premium experience it once was?
