I've been here a number of times during international trips. Food options are fairly limited, but this is a small club. I know others will attempt to...

The American flagship lounge in Chicago is by far Americans best club so far in the states. The selection of wine, beer and liquor is very nice. You don't...

The first class section is open to emerald members.
It is a smaller lounge and no showers. ( maybe available in business class lounge?)
Free flow champagne and a table service section.
I found the buffet is well stocked and a self service bar.
The design is not the most inspiring but everything is clean.
Table service has a limited menu. Breakfast to 12 and then lunch/dinner.
This lounge is very disappointing. As another visitor observed, it feels like a basic Admirals Club in a third tier city. It’s a world away from the Flagship Lounge in LA. Or indeed BA’s Concorde Room at Heathrow.
The only champagne is NV Moët and there are a few boring commercial beers. On the plus side, a decent breakfast is served all day.
The decor is mid-2000s and the space is cavernous, so you can hear everyone’s inane conversations.
1/5. Will make sure I travel BA next time.
I just flew back from London, UK to JFK and it was my first time at the “new” First Class lounge for AA in Terminal 3. I’m a 1.5million miler / Executive Platinum with AA and have frequented “Flagship First” lounges worldwide (with my personal favorite being in Hong Kong). To put it bluntly, this would be a decent standard Admiral’s Club at a midsized US airport, but is a TERRIBLE experience for first class travelers flying internationally. Small, dated decor and furniture, minimal food selections (that, again, you would get at a standard Admiral’s Club in the states), the restaurant has seating for perhaps 15-20ppl. This is an embarrassment for the AA brand.
This lounge shows it age with the interior a little outdated, but still a nice place with enough seating and a restaurant area.
Nice choice of food (buffet and a la carte) and great selection of beverages.
Free Wifi, business centre, nice bathrooms.
Not really a flagship lounge since the interiour is much older than the admirals club nearby. You cannot even call it classic style. But ample amount of seating available.
Breakfast selection looked good, choice of beverages as well..
Business centre, newspapers and magazines, free WIFI. Restrooms are outside the lounge – shared with the admirals club.
The interiour is old and not as fresh and modern as the Admirals Club next door. There is plenty of seating in different areas, but the place was quite crowded and there is no apron view.
The choice of food and beverages was ok, but nothing that you would call first class.
There is free WIFI, a TV room, small business centre with copymachine and printer, flight information display and some newspapers and magazines. Restrooms are outside and shared with the Admirals Club.
