What a mess at those clubs during the peak int'l arrival / departure times. Today each club had lines 10 deep trying to get in (arrived in C, connected in D so walked by each).

I went in D simply to use the bathroom and ask an agent a question. And that's it. There was no room to do anything else with seats taken.

Is this a new thing post merger, or has it always been tolerated like this? I'm okay with the spartan terminal as long as there's a club seat, but my last trips through Dulles it was better to find an empty gate area to go work.
I have thought the same thing about the lounges in EWR. Between 3-7 pm it is an awful experience there with surley agents, poor food, impossible to get a drink at the bar, and almost not seating. UClubs are not worth anything. Will they build anymore International FC Lounges in EWR or IAH?
