My suspicion is that it just wasn't worth the money to pay for the extra staff to keep SFO open, since aviators99 mentioned he was sometimes the only person there. Ah, well.
It's sad about SFO. Poor Mike is now without a job...
I've never been to the JFK clubhouse, but I can tell you that the IAD clubhouse is really, really tiny, and can't really support the VS F customers they get now. I only know that because I've read about it, and could see the entirety of it when I tried to muscle my way in once. I will get to use it for real on 1/28 :-)
