Do you know how much a digital sign would cost? AS is NOT going to spend that kind of money on an AL and it would delay the opening by at least another 6 months.

They could get the sign but might have to do without the pancake machine to cover the added expense. At any rate this will now require a full re-design and additional meetings with POS. I see no way to get it done in six months.

As per SEA D lounge staff...."end of the month" and on the side , "they are hoping to make it by the end of the month".
Reading article in Beyond magazine now and pic looks pretty sweet.
As per the article, "The lounge will focus on healthy and fresh food offerings, by local bakeries and vendors. Food and snack options will rotate regularly..."
Sounds like an improvement to what is currently offered in D and N.
Will be flying on July 5. Hopefully I will be able to report on an open C lounge.

Use of the word "vendors" as quoted from the article makes me wonder if the newest AS Lounge is going to offer food for sale rather than just complimentary snacks. Thoughts?

No word on how long it is taking them to rip out the showers......perhaps that is what is taking so long. They can't get the rags tight enough to stop up the shower drains.
