Chicago / ORD Flagship Lounge - Any confirmed opening?

Hi folks,
I saw a post a few months ago stating that Chicago's FL would be opening on March 30th. Since then, I haven't seen anything else to support that claim. I've searched high and low for more stories, but nothing more can I find on the subject. I have a flight on the 1st to Finland and it's just my luck that it's through the one airport that doesn't have it's FL open yet.

I saw that when it first came out. Quite the bummer, but no flights through ORD booked at this time, so no biggie.

Bigtime bummer for the OP, though.

Yeah, this is really frustrating. This is the second time I have gone through ORD and cannot use the lounge. Meanwhile, JFK and MIA were open while I couldn't enjoy it in Chicago. It's absolutely absurd.
