Is there anything kosher at the Plaza Premium Lounge (Transborder) at YYZ beside the fruits?

In the club, it's slim pickings. But there's a Cibo right outside that has kosher sandwiches and salads.

UA Club JFK is a poor excuse for a club. It's old and tired-looking, and is generally crowded. No showers, the bathrooms aren't much better than standard airport offerings, poor selection of refreshments, worn upholstery, etc. Best one I've been to is the big one at EWR, although the renovated on in LAX comes pretty close.

Best club I've personally been to in JFK is DL SkyClub T4.

i think that I once passed by that one. It looked very tempting.

I used it before my El Al flight this past June. It was literally right next to the gate.

What about an AU?
If it is a platinum card, yes.

if you have the actual plat. card in hand it works until expiration.

The rep from amex told me that with priority pass its a ymmv and sometimes they let you in with only you're amex play card. Or if you have the priority pass card number without the physical card.

I'm really pissed. I had a 5 5 hr layover in Moscow & I called Priorty pass before hand and they said there was a lounge but they didn't say that it was only accessible before security & therefore can't be reached from transfers (which I made very clear on the call was where I was coming from...) I just find that when you need the lounges the most is when there are non available..

Yep. The Moscow airport sucks to no end.
