A: No. Flight Club is a paid lounge chain (not airline-affiliated). Delta Premium Select members must pay $25 extra to use the lounge—same as walk-ins. Emirates First Class passengers paid $38 during the 2023 Broadway season, avoiding the $25 standard rate.
A: Arrive 15 minutes before your show start time. The Manhattan lounge is 10 minutes from the Minskoff Theatre (400 W 45th St), but 5 minutes from the subway exit. If your show starts at 7:30 PM, enter by 7:15 PM to avoid missing curtain.
A: Only if your show ends after 9 PM. The L train from 34th Street takes 20 minutes to Brooklyn, costing $2.75. If your show ends at 8:15 PM, you’ll miss the 8:30 PM train. The Manhattan lounge is 3 minutes closer to most theaters, saving 7 minutes total travel time.
