probably this, and I’m not sure if discussed in the other thread, but with the plan to re-do the airport, I do wonder if they are working on securing space in the new terminal, which presumably would open up space for third-party lounges.

i agree, would love to see a lounge at ORD, but even if they could get space in the current arrangement, wonder if the investment just ain’t worth it, and they would rather wait to build a new lounge within the new infrastructure.

of course, who knows the timing of this? Not even sure what the current timeline for completion is, but obviously, add what, 5-10 years due to politics and typical Chicago delays. How much longer did it take to get the train fixed than they planned for.
