Maybe they need to take the Delta route, and offer FCM into the "Cheese Room". Improves the bottom line and restricts access at the same time! /s

This will put all of the "sleep aid" medications out of business. A screen full of static, with possible shadowy movement in the background once or twice a month is sure to help anyone pass out from boredom. There will be no need for additional chemical help.

Fortunately, the stock survives and AS thrives nevertheless.

Turns out the wall isn't that sturdy hiding construction...but not that lightweight

Sorry to ask, but exactly where is this "temporary" board room? Is it at the old UA RCC on the lower (subway) level of the N terminal?

East side of the North Satellite main level between the Burger King and the women's restroom.

Back through SEA next weekend. It would be nice to have a BR in N open but from reading thread so far it seems an extreme long shot.

It's not in the center. It's between N1 and N2.

Okay, northeast, and it is the area between the burger king and the women's restroom. If AndyPatterson walks from the Burger King towards the women's restroom, he will see the construction area. If he reaches the women's restroom without seeing it he should stop and turn around.

As an update I actually heard construction noises coming from inside the walls hiding the boardroom on Monday 10/12. I was able to peek in a crack in the door and saw that they appear to be installing counters and some cabinetry. At this rate I expect an announcement any day the Boardroom will open in "early" 2016!!!

makes it look like the lounge is actually at ground level, not at gate level. I always assumed they crammed it between the two gates, but now I'm thinking it's just the elevator/stairs down to the lower level where they actually have the lounge?

I am 95% certain it is one the departure gate level. There are no windows on the lower level.

I also see the main Boardroom is going to stay open till midnight effective 11/7, which is great for those of us connecting onto the late QX flights!! Thanks AS!!
