  • I hope the LAX one is accessible when flying AA as their flights to/from Hawaii seems to connect there a lot. Otherwise, I won't ever fly AA.

  • About time Phoenix finally got one.. Here is to hoping Nashville the Vegas of the south gets one sometime soon as well.

  • The DEN lounge will be closer to 2021. The location of the CL is in the expansion project for Concourse C. Construction of the expansion project has not begun.

    • As noted by others, this is incorrect. The CL is progressing, even if slowly. It is not in an as yet constructed portion of the building. I am surprised it will take until 2020, as per DoC - perhaps more disappointed than surprised.

    • I flew to DCA from Armenia, Vienna and ORD yesterday. The only stop without Priority Pass or AMEX access was ORD (terminal 1). ORD needs to get its act together. I had to fight to pay for a glass of wine that cost $18.73 near C-1.

    • It may be another 5 years or give or take. ORD has been inking some deals for renovations so they're probably going to save everything for that before they do smaller things. They're finishing up the parking lot transit system to the terminals so I'd imagine the airport's next.
