We don't know that. I do have a lot of tea at home. Sometimes I hear rumblings from the leaves. AS left us de facto loungeless at SFO for ages. We had some CX access for a bit (with membership necessary, no paid F) and then when AS moved to 2, as good as worthless. Then we had AA access (again, with paid membership, not with paid F). And even that disappeared, with not even lounge membership access.

This was on the heels of a small but for some of us, "second home" type old BR that we frequented for years.

As.much as I generally like AS and know how wonderful the competition can be, at times we're nothing more than the stepchild that gets the perfunctory birthday card that says "I Love You."
