can you really hang out at jfk overnight?

Last summer, I landed at JFK around 5pm, suitcase in tow, thinking I could just camp out in the airport until my bus the next day. Turns out, it’s not as simple as it sounds. Once you grab your bags from baggage claim, you’re basically herded toward the exits—no turning back to the terminals unless you have another boarding pass. I remember wandering around with my 22kg suitcase, realizing there weren’t any cozy spots to settle in, just hard benches and a constant stream of people coming and going. I tried to find a quiet corner, but security kept making rounds, and honestly, it felt a bit awkward trying to nap with all the noise and bright lights. I kept thinking, is there a secret lounge or area where people actually get some rest? Or does everyone just end up killing time at the Dunkin’ Donuts near arrivals? I get that airports want to keep things moving, but it’s wild how there’s nowhere to really relax if you’re stuck for hours. Has anyone actually managed to spend the night at JFK after baggage claim without feeling like a zombie? Or is there a better way to handle a long layover like this? I wish there was a spot to stash my suitcase and just stretch out for a bit, but maybe I’m missing something obvious. If you’ve cracked the code, I’d love to hear how you survived the wait! #JFKairport #travelproblems #overnightlayover #Travel

can air europa biz class use virgin lounge at jfk?

So, I’m flying Air Europa business class out of JFK soon, and honestly, I’ve been pulling my hair out trying to figure out which lounge I can actually use. I’ve checked the website, called customer service (they just read me the same info I already found online), and even asked around on travel forums, but it’s all super vague. Some people say you can use the Virgin Atlantic lounge, others say no way. Last time I flew out of JFK, I ended up wandering around for almost 30 minutes with my suitcase, just trying to find a decent spot to relax, and I really don’t want a repeat of that. I mean, if I’m paying for business class, shouldn’t I get a clear answer about where I can sit and have a coffee before my flight? Has anyone actually gotten into the Virgin lounge with an Air Europa business ticket? Or did you get turned away at the door? If you found a good lounge, which one was it, and was it worth it? I’d love to hear your real experiences, not just what the websites say. It feels like they make it complicated on purpose! #JFKAirport #AirEuropa #BusinessClass #LoungeAccess #TravelTips #Travel
