B-10 Club is closed for refurbishment, possibly until 2017. (Flagship Lounge remains open.)

A small temporary Club "with limited seating and amenities" has been opened in the interim.

The Concourse C Club near C-42 is open.

My guess is that after the AC is remodeled (Term 8B), then the FL will close and be remodeled.

I stopped in the temporary B "lounge" area about two weeks ago. Basically it's one open space on a terrace overlooking the area immediately post-security and has a bunch of tables and chairs set up. Small moveable bar+sink-type thing that you might see in someone's living room, and a conference table with the snack towers of doom + soup. I was there on a Saturday evening and despite the terminal being not overly busy, the lounge area was pretty crowded, if only because the space is small. Bathrooms are about a quarter of a mile trot through the backdoor bowels of the AA ops area (I saw signs for uniform pick up and crew briefing/conference rooms on the walk to the bathroom).

Got the same email today. It never mentioned the Flagship lounge specifically- is it a temporary one as well?

Is there bar beverage service?

Adjacent to the B lounge (right where you exit the elevators) is an open area--is this where the "new" B lounge is located? They've used it in the past for "social functions"; at the opposite end is a special area for AA crew.

There was a bartender manning the bar/sink, and upon a cursory glance I saw the standard bottles of liquor found in the AC.

Your description sounds about right so I believe that's a yes but not 100% positive. When you get off the elevators and are facing the main check in desk (regular AC to your right), you make a complete 180 to get to the temporary lounge area.

Nothing has changed with the FL.

It would seem reasonable to annex some of this area as part of the NEW AC; there are times when (pre-construction) that AC is packed to capacity [4 pm to 8 pm]

Was just in there last week. One of the supervisors said that the FL will only remain open through the summer, but then it too will close for renovations, even before the regular AC reopens.

Will there then be a TEMPORARY FL?
The C lounge has a (sort of) business area, to your right when you enter, THAT area could become an FL [since it is isolated from the rest of the C lounge].

The Concourse C Club near C-42 is open.
The temporary club in the B concourse is located in the second floor breezeway section (turn right after exiting the elevator) and overlooks security and the passageway to the C-concourse.

The C-Concourse AC was very crowded this past Sunday afternoon and I had to wait a few minutes for a lounge chair in the back to open up.
