Renovation (probably just interim reno) of T3 will begin as soon as Delta has a lease on the terminal. A complete rebuild of T3 may have to wait until MSC is done so Delta can temporary use some TBIT North and/or TBIT MSC gates.
Thankfully, I don't connect at LAX. Can't imagine how much fun a bus ride will be from T5/6 to T3 during this transition time-wise. Spotters wise it'd be awesome.

Why did they ever end up in T2 to start with?
I think it is in T2 where they could have a dedicated lounge. If they do end up moving to TBIT, I would imagine LAWA would give them a nice deal on an MSC lounge.

BTW, this isn't on LAWA's BOAC agenda for 6/2. Maybe 6/16 -23?
