Come 2026, flying with Qatar Airways to and from the US will be a more premium experience. Qatar Airways\u2019 first flagship lounge in USA is coming up at New York JFK Airport where the airline will shift its operations to the brand new Terminal One from Terminal 8. The world\u2019s Best Airline 2025 by Skytrax will offer the signature hospitality of Qatar in America and enhance your airport luxury statement.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Inside Qatar Airways\u2019 first US lounge at JFK Terminal One<\/strong><\/h3>\n

One of the world\u2019s best business class airlines recognized by Skytrax Awards 2025, the Doha-based carrier officially announced that it is opening a 15,000-sqft lounge facility at JFK Airport\u2019s newest terminal in 2026. Anticipations are high that the lounge will be an oasis of luxury and comfort for premium guests from across the world. The state-of-the-art facility will have all modern trappings, such as VIP check-in, swanky dining space, duty-free shopping, private relaxation areas, alongside dedicated prayer rooms.<\/p>\n

Qatar Airways\u2019 upcoming JFK lounge may provide direct access to the boarding gate for international flights from New York to India<\/a><\/span> and other countries<\/strong>, much like Etihad Airways\u2019 US Pre-clearance lounge<\/strong><\/a><\/span> in Abu Dhabi. Currently, John F. Kennedy Airport houses several airlines lounges including Delta Sky Club, Lufthansa Senator Lounge, Emirates Lounge, Virgin Atlantic Club House, Alaska Lounge, and Air India Maharaja Lounge (under renovation), but neither of these JFK lounges offers direct boarding facility.<\/p>\n

Who can access Qatar Airways\u2019 lounge at New York JFK <\/strong><\/p>\n

The airline is yet to give an official statement regarding who, among its premium passengers, can access the 15,000-sqft lounge at JFK Airport, the largest gateway in the east coast US. It is obvious that Qatar Airways\u2019 Qsuite customers, those booking long-haul business class flight tickets<\/a><\/span>, first class flyers, and premium guests of other Oneworld airlines would get access to the lounge in JFK Airport\u2019s new Terminal One.<\/p>\n

While Qatar Airways among our partners is raising the bar in passenger experience, Indian Eagle \u2013 the most trusted air-ticketing partner of Indians and Americans \u2013 boasts a proven record in booking budget airline tickets to India<\/a><\/span> and unbeatable phone-only flight deals at +1800-615-3969 (from the US).
