JetBlue has announced plans to open its first lounge, ‘BlueHouse’ at New York’s John F. Kennedy International Airport on December 18, 2025.

Designed to feel like an extension of home, the lounge space offers travelers a more relaxed experience to play, work and unwind with design and technology that reduces long lines and make travel feel easier.

“BlueHouse helps make our flagship terminal feel more like home,” said Marty St. George, president, JetBlue in a statement, “It’s warm, comfortable, and elevated in a way that’s distinctly JetBlue, with the hospitality and thoughtful amenities our customers have been asking for. As our first lounge, it represents an exciting milestone in our JetForward journey as we focus on bringing affordable, premium experiences from the aircraft to the airport.”

Key lounge highlights include:

  • 9,000 square feet and two floors bring an NYC apartment–style aesthetic to JFK Terminal 5 with Art Deco design, curated local art and playful nods to JetBlue’s history.
  • Local flavor infused fresh bites curated by Union Square Events and beverages from NYC partners Joe Coffee, The Greats of Craft and Please Don’t Tell.
  • High-speed Wi-Fi, ample power outlets, a game room, open seating and quiet areas give space to the different needs of travelers looking to socialize, work and relax before flying.
  • Complimentary access is available to Mosaic 4 members, JetBlue Premier Cardmembers and transatlantic Mint customers.

“We wanted customers to feel like they’re stepping into a warm and stylish New York City apartment filled with character, where layers of JetBlue history and New York iconography can be discovered with every visit,” said Stephanie Evans Greene, senior vice president, marketing and brand, JetBlue.

She added, “Just as New Yorkers bring their own personality into a new space, we infused the space with JetBlue’s signature style to feel homey and comfortable when staying in our House.”

BlueHouse weaves together JetBlue’s history as New York’s hometown airline with the Empire State’s spirit through art locally curated by Statement Of, and a mural designed by Artists for Humanity that features constellations of JetBlue destinations in the style of Grand Central Terminal’s iconic ceiling.
