JetBlue is unveiling its first-ever airport lounge at New York’s John F. Kennedy International Airport in a major push to expand its premium services, the airline announced Thursday.
The lounge, called BlueHouse, will open Dec. 18 at 5 a.m. in Terminal 5. A second location is scheduled to open in 2026 at Boston Logan International Airport’s Terminal C, the air carrier said.
Designed to “feel like an extension of home” and inspired by New York City’s energy and character, BlueHouse will span two floors and 9,000 square feet, JetBlue said. The space is expected to feature an NYC apartment–style aesthetic with art deco elements and “playful nods to JetBlue’s history.”
“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,” Stephanie Evans Greene, senior vice president of marketing and brand, said.

For entertainment, the lounge will reportedly include a game room stocked with JetBlue-branded cards, chess, checkers and children’s toys. Guests can also take home photos from a custom photo booth, the company added.

“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,” JetBlue President Marty St. George said.
