What terminal is Aer Lingus at JFK?
Aer Lingus uses Terminal 7 at JFK Airport. Flight numbers starting with EI depart from Terminal 7, which has 12 gates. Terminal assignments shift during the New Terminal One rebuild, so the live board is the tiebreaker on the day. Arrivals work slightly differently to departures.
Which terminal does Aer Lingus arrive at JFK?
Aer Lingus arrives at Terminal 7, the same terminal it departs from. Meeting someone off a flight means heading to Terminal 7 arrivals rather than the departures level, and international arrivals take longer than the landing time suggests because passengers clear immigration and baggage first. Track the inbound flight on the live Aer Lingus arrivals board and leave for the airport once it has actually landed. Left something on board? That goes to Aer Lingus, not the airport; the JFK lost and found guide routes it. If you are the one flying out instead, the next question is usually about the lounge.
Is there a lounge for Aer Lingus passengers at JFK?
Terminal 7 has no Priority Pass lounge, so a Priority Pass membership does not help Aer Lingus passengers here. Access depends on a business or first class ticket, airline status, or a credit card tied to a lounge in Terminal 7.
