JetBlue opens BlueHouse Boston at Logan on August 27, its biggest lounge yet at 12,000 square feet, with a Jackson Cannon cocktail menu and a Green Monster replica wall. But access is narrower than the space suggests — here's who actually gets in.
Istanbul Airport logged 8.15 million passengers in July 2026 against Heathrow's 7.86 million, ending London's hold on the title since 2023. The swing wasn't really about Istanbul surging — it was about Heathrow's Middle East traffic collapsing.
