The lounge’s colors are reminiscent of Southern California, with sunset shades and leather and walnut accents highlighting the Icon Bar. Verde Emerald quartzite adorns the onyx back bar, capturing the spirit of the coast. The lighting evokes a Hollywood feel, with oculus-inspired ceilings and fluted walnut paneling inspired by L.A. architecture, like Art Deco and Modernism. Besides that, there’s much more, from international artwork to eclectic cuisine.

Delta One luxury brand partner Missoni provided accent pillows for the 26-seat landscaped terrace. The Italian fashion house also added vases, books, and pillows to the library lounge area. 

Guests can enjoy fine cuisine anywhere in the lounge, with interesting menu items like roasted corn pizza, crispy duck tacos, and pan-seared salmon. The year-round sushi bar offers tasty rolls, and a rotating selection of location-themed bento boxes lets visitors try flavors from Paris, Boston, and Tokyo.

Claude Roussel, Vice President – Delta Sky Clubs and Lounge Experience, commented: “From JFK to LAX, the opening of this lounge allows us to offer our customers a premium experience from coast to coast. With a menu designed for our most discerning guests and the dedicated, individualized hospitality curated exclusively for our Delta One Lounges, our teams continue to raise the bar on service and elevate what an airport lounge can be.”

No PreCheck? Try these TSA tips for a faster airport security experience
Don't have PreCheck? Here are some tricks to get through TSA faster when you fly.
TSA Agent

Special programs to get through airport security are fantastic, especially during the busy holiday season. Breezing through those long security lines removes a lot of stress from a day full of flying. Unfortunately, some airports--especially when you're traveling internationally--don't have these options. PreCheck and Clear aside, it’s still possible to simplify your journey through airport security if you're willing to switch up how you plan and prepare for the airport. 

When you really look at the cause of those dreaded TSA lines, the culprit is usually a lack of open lanes, passenger error, or both. Everyone has seen folks forgetting they have things in their pocket, getting pulled to the side for a bag inspection, or worse, marching off to some scary TSA room for a pat down. While we can’t ensure every airport has enough lanes open, we can show you how to get through TSA faster so your travel plans aren’t derailed or delayed. More time to browse duty-free is always nice, right?
