Do we know *anything* about the new AC in E, beyond it's somewhere in the general vicinity of the satellite? (AA said 'in' the satellite, but I can't imagine they would sacrifice terminal space when the former Crown Room is on the 'mezzanine' level.) Is it indeed the old Crown Room space? Will it open next month when the satellite opens? What should we expect, something similar (read: basic) to the AC in the Eagle's Nest @ LAX? Etc, etc...

A is still the best there. It's a beautiful club and has the coke machine which is so handy compared to C where you have to wait in line at the bar forever for a coke zero.

ah okay I didn't know that.
That being said every time I taxi past E I see that separate small outlying terminal outside of E. It looks like a satellite terminal of some sort. Do you know what I"m talking about? It's not in use now but wonder if it will come back online.

Yes, that's the E satellite I'm referring to. It definitely is coming back and AA will be operating AE flights out of there. It's part of getting AA to over 900 daily departures per day at DFW and the deal where they got something like ~ 10 new DFW gates. This is where the new AC-E will be housed I am guessing.

I've only seen pickup trucks at this satellite. The big yellow birds are at the main E

Ive never been to a DFW AC other than to the front desk for flight changes, I usually just go to the centurion lounge, are the ACs worth going to when someone also has the platinum card?

It was discussed on their "Tell Me Why" podcast that discussed the opening of the satellite.
Other notes that were already known:
- 9 regional gates on B will become 6 mainline gates
- There will be 12 regional gates in the satellite
- The AA-controlled gates in the main building of E will remain
- The satellite gates will primarily be single-class aircraft, while 2-class aircraft will be concentrated out of B. (Whether Skywest stays in E or moves to B was unclear.)
