where will this lounge be exactly? No clue where they might be putting it
That might actually make sense. As of right now, The Residence crowd is only on London and Sydney Flights. By opening up the USA, they open up a whole new market. It might then actually make sense to open the F + RE (do we call it that now? Or F+ lol) lounge to accommodate 3 cities worth of crowds - including F on other planes.

At least for now, this theory makes more sense than waiting for a new Airport to open, which may only open late 2017 at best.
