CO has moved to T2.

The new AM lounge is very nice. Has a wine bar that looks like a pay bar (not sure on that point, but I saw people being handed restaurant style checks!) Free wi-fi, video game station, lots of flat screen TVs mounted everywhere. All the other basic stuff, but the ambiance is a big step up from the dreadful feeling that was in T1.

One odd thing that I don't care much for is that instead of work stations, there is a large oval desk that seats about 20 people face-to-face right in front of the beverage area. I personally would prefer some more private desks instead of the "out in the open" feeling of the current setup. It seems like everyone walking by can stare at your computer screen, and phone calls are out of the question.

The domestic and international arms are in two separate areas, so my comments refer to the domestic club - I haven't been to the international side. And a typical AM bonehead thing: The flight status screens, which are designed to be side by side, are on complete opposite ends of the club. So, one screen toggles between screen 1 & 3, and then you have to run across the club to see screens 2 & 4 .

One other odd T2 note: All connecting passengers now must re-clear security upon arrival, even domestic > domestic flights. If you are planning to use the lounge upon arrival, you are out of luck.
