They also were told that it's the "nicest" MLL in North America. Can't wait to judge for myself
Are the food and drinks going to be as good as the AMEX CL?

b. Add "or hold Aeroplan Super Elite, Elite 75K, or Elite 50K status while traveling on a confirmed Star Alliance flight leaving from the same..." (phrase it so that it includes AC*G flying UA out of T3; this would also not affect the access to the YYZ Cafe)
2. Calling it a Cafe

The last thing we need is a 4th type of lounge with a unique set of entry requirements.
​​​​​​​What about UA *G flying UA and holding a TD Visa Infinite Privilege?
