Is the AC in the E/Satellite terminal open or does it exist? It's listed on AA app but I didn't see it on the list of clubs at top of thread and didn't see any recent information searching the thread. It's also sort of "grayed out" on google maps whereas all the other DFW locations have the little cocktail glass symbol beside them and you can click to bring up more info. I'm flying TUL-DFW-TYR in March, and I strongly suspect I'll be leaving from that terminal if not both arriving and leaving, so it'd be awesome if there's a tiny club there like at LAX. If I do fly into a "real" terminal I'm trying to figure out if it's worth trying to visit another AC or just go straight to E. I'm assuming also it's similar to LAX and I'll have account for time to catch a shuttle to get to the satellite gates. Thanks for any info!

As this happened on the 15th, this is probably old news. Per the article, Compass replaced HMS Host in operating the lounges.

Flying from LHR to the US and can fly in F on 77W and connect in DFW or fly J and connect in RDU for 25K fewer miles. Are any of the lounges at DFW worth the effort/cost to connect there?
I am EXP and have Priority Pass.
Concorde Room at LHR is a moot point and everything else at LHR is the same whether in J or F, so I guess DFW FFD is the only real difference, unless there is another lounge at DFW worth seeing (FFD isn't enough - I've been to MIA/LAX FFD).
Thanks!

Not really sure what you're looking for then? There isn't some additional lounge if FFD doesn't suit you. Also, with it being AA metal ex-LHR, you would be out of T3, but if CCR doesn't float your boat (and I find it overrated, but moot point), then any of the T3 lounges won't move the needle either. So just pick the flight that suits your schedule, sounds like you've answered your question.
EDIT: Confirmed I won't have CCR access as it is in T5 and AA departures are from T3. Can't access T5 without a BP for T5.

I'd argue that FL in DFW with showers over the normal AC in RDU (which is small, not great food, and can get busy).
Do you like or dislike the concept D seats that you may or may not get. It could be worth it to avoid those and have the longer lie flat flight.
Final point, do you care about having one last go in F before it's sunset (eventually, whenever they get their new aircraft)
