JFK Hilton Executive Lounge

We checked in after 3 PM, after spending nearly three hours (and more money than we would have guessed) traveling by train and subway from the Doubletree EWR to the JFK Hilton. It was a fair amount of work, and challenging finding the subway ticket booth at Penn Station after getting off the train. Still, we made it to the Hilton.

We’re now enjoying Happy Hour in their cozy lounge, which offers hot appetizers and free beer and wine, a relatively rare situation at Hilton’s domestic lounges.
