Huge loss when NW/DL merged - all the NW lounges got pulled :/

That's the main reason we can't use Priority Pass. I guess I can't blame DL for wanting the profits direct.
I spent some time in the new JFK SkyClub and I was amazed how much money was spent for upgraded snacks and beverages. Comp snacks were quite simple--veggies, hummus/ranch dip, olives, dried fruit and dry snacks. Bistro menu options ranged from cheese to sandwiches/salads for $7-12. Upcharges on drinks were HUGE: Kahlua $10 (Bailey's comp) Top shelf other stuff was same retail as public bars $10-15 and wines were $10 and UP!!!! House wines were comp, of course, and tasty enough. One woman paid $50 for entry to use showers and enjoy 5 hr layover. I felt pretty good only spending $25.
