With all the new credit cards providing Priority Pass membership, there is going to be an upswing in Board Room occupancy. That ramp up may coincide with reduced traffic of the offseason to keep things steady but when spring/summer comes around next year, and no new space, it is going to be a very long packed summer in the BRs
I could see them cutting off Priority Pass access if they need to, sending them to The Club at A or S.

This is starting to look like how the temporary N boardroom went. The original announcement was in late 2015 and said the C Boardroom would open "next year". Well its nearing the end of "next year" with not a word on the project.
And while I am at it, my person pet peeve.....Do something about SAN!!!

The DL Club was built quickly. Why are you calling it a monstrosity? That window towards the A concourse apron and Mr. Rainier looks gorgeous... when I peered in from the concourse before it opened.

I don't love that at all. The views from the AX lounge were great, especially from the stand-up counter. And it does not look to me like the small addition will truly replace what we lost. But I don't deny DL the ability to build a great lounge, and perhaps AX could have done that had they really wanted to invest in SEA.
In any event, compared to a few years ago, the lounge situation is certainly much better in SEA!

Most lounge comments I read lately are about food. As long as it is palatable and plentiful, I bet most people will be happy.

Bottom line, DL has a plan to refurbish and/or build the SC network into something like the international clubs.
AS has no such plans and only gives lip service, excuses and delays when it comes to anything Board Room. Frankly I do not believe anything AS says about the future of the Board Rooms. They have never been remotely up front with what is going on.
