Some of the lounges probably have phone rooms

Is there even a lounge in T5?

i don’t have any credit cards, etc that would get me access to a lounge. are there day passes offered?

That's true, but the restaurants are pretty decent and the amex Plat priority pass doesn't work on those any more.

These are the only lounges in T5 (via Lounge Buddy). None look promising.

The terrace looks cool, but I doubt it is quiet enough for a conference call.

funny

has anyone gone to a lounge in a different terminal than the one they were flying out of?

Yes, ideally you would go to one that is connected to your terminal so you don't have to go back through security. I don't remember what JFK terminal 5 looks like TBH.

Twa hotel. Added bonus: Food at Paris cafe is really good.

this is what’re we are a gonna do. think we’re going to run into any issues with finding a ‘quiet’ spot to set up shop for a few hours?

Should I be mindful about how much I’m spending or should I blow up the budget until someone says something?

Is anyone else concerned about how to raise the expectations and students’ self-discipline back to pre-enabling levels?
