The PanAm Worldport, a terminal at JFK (built when it was still Idlewild, at the dawn of the jet age). Sadly, it’s being demolished:
The plan would entail the demolition of the smaller terminal, the PanAm Worldport, an architectural symbol of the 1960s jet age that has nevertheless been described as a blight on the airport by passengers and airline executives alike.
Delta has long lamented the state of the Worldport, which it uses for many of its international flights, describing the space as unpleasant and unfit for its role as a gateway to the United States for international travelers.

How can I do a Pan Am image dump without including an image from 2001? Here’s a space flight attendant, but that Flickr account has more screen grabs (including Pan Am ones) in this 2001 set. (via)

David Noël in On This Day Today: 1966. (The whole thing is worth a read for the story of a Pan Am plane crash in East Germany.)
The lounge, on Budapester Straße 43 near Wittenbergplatz U-Bahn has a Flash site (which I didn’t bother looking at), but it’s also covered Ultraswank. It seems to be private, but they (used to) occasionally host jazz nights. Seems like it might be worth looking out for.
