I have a bad feeling about this.

Since UA 1P/2P/1K (without UC membership and without GS) can't access UC with domestic flights (doesn't matter anyway since they'll choose CIP regardless), they'll all be flooding this lounge, especially with IAD being connected through out entire areas airside. Unless TK is planning on raking in lounge access revenues from other *A FFPs which I doubt UA would be too thrilled about. (When M&S members use it it's a cost, but when other *G members use it it's charged toward their respective FFPs)

This would be different if they set up CIP lounge(s) at ORD, JFK, and BOS since TK is flying out of those airports at exclusive terminals (T5, T1 and Intl) and other *G leeches won't be able to get to them. BTW, the lounges at ORD are absolutely horrendous as I have used both Swiss and Swissport lounges, I ended up leaving and eating at food court outside.

So, I am not getting my hopes up and will continue to use Maple Leaf lounge at YYZ for TK flights out of NA.
