- There is no room for a temporary lounge at A, so any major renovation would require UA to "bite the bullet" at some point
- I don't expect much more in the way of crowding at C, aside from those on long layovers or who spend too much time in airports to begin with. O&D passengers at A are still most likely to clear security at A and avoid the bus ride
- UA wants to schedule its most disruptive EWR lounge renovations (C-1/C-3) during the winter/early spring low seasons for business travel

In other news/rumors, the former RCC in A is slated to become a MLL next year.
