Has anyone been to the DCA Admirals Club since it reopened? I couldn't find anything at AA.com (although it's only September 12). Any reports or photos? Hopefully all of the AAngels are still there!

They are supposed to have reopened today, aren't they?
According to the new floor plan that I saw when I visited them on Sep.2, they were going to convert the two conference rooms behind the AAngels counter into additional sitting area.

Spent most of the morning there today - still not open, although they were hoping to possibly start opening it up to us by the afternoon. Sounds like the grand reopening will be in stages, basically minor renovations will continue over the next few weeks. Not surprisng, the whole DCA staff has been wonderful during this time, gracious and helpful as ever as they'd opened up the room where Congressmen and other VIPS are allowed to sit (and yes, they must be AC members). It was small and somewhat cramped, but the staff did their best to make us feel at home. They are the best. ^

I'm flying through Wed and Thurs of next week and looking forward to seeing it. They desperately needed more room.

Let's see - so you approach the entrance (getting ready to hit the buzzer), if you look to your left, you'll see a door. This takes you into three offices, one where the club manager works, a room with two compters, and a seating room. 
I was told some of the changes will include turning the conference room into a tv room/coffee area; the main sitting room will be one large room (no divider), and they're planning to glass off the computing room so that members aren't bothered by the noise in the AC lobby.

When you're there could you ask about reports posted here of free wi-fi coming at the end of the year? As I've found these agents are the most helpful in the system, maybe they'll have an update. I forgot to ask when I was through there the last week of August.

I'm flying in tomorrow and out Friday, and I'm looking forward to seeing it. I've never been in that AC before, though, so I won't have the before/after perspective. At least this one is inside security. I still can't believe PHL is outside! 
That is so useless these days!

I much prefer to get inside security and then relax there rather than risk an unexpectedly long line that could make me miss a flight. JMO, YMMV

DCA AC / Admirals Club Hours
Does the DCA AC really close at 19:30 as listed on aa.com? There are 5 flights to MIA, STL, BNA, ORD, and RDU that depart weekday evenings between 20:30 and 21:25. It's very surprising that the club would close so early with so many departures.

My Data Point
I flew DCA to Miami on Saturday, November 24, on flight #1261, which departs at 8:35 p.m. My SO & I were in the DCA Admirals Club till 8 p.m. It was only us and another couple, also on the Miami flight. We all left together to the gate.

Found out from first hand experience the club closes at 21:00 on weekdays. AA.com is wrong.
