However, the existing lounge at LAX (as well as other Delta One Lounge outposts) offers a la carte dining and bars featuring specially created signature cocktails. The JFK location has its own shower suites, though the other ones share shower facilities with adjacent Sky Clubs. Some lounges feature relaxation and wellness areas with massage chairs (though no spa services are offered).<\/p>\n<p>Both the Delta One Lounge and Delta&#8217;s massive Sky Club at LAX also have expansive outdoor decks overlooking the tarmac.
