As the title says it is closed until further notice. Staff at the elevators informing you of this.

At least the elevators are working even if you can't go to the lounge

Haha yeah. They were handing out gift cards for the inconvenience. I ended up just going to the KLM lounge instead.

IAH really needs to work on providing better access to the lounge.
Anyone know why the 2nd elevator is never used?

There are two elevators in the duty free shop. The other one is right next to the only one that ever works, just to the left of it.

Still closed as of 5:35pm local time. I'm slumming it in the KLM lounge, but might spend my gift card at Whataburger.

Actually, it sounds like for the time being they should work on getting water to the lounge.

They both have almost identical offerings. I wouldn't call either of them "awful" myself, but after the Centurion opened, they pale in comparison.

Personally, I prefer the AF over the KLM, since AF is usually much quieter and it has an outside view.

Any updates on the Centurion today?

The KLM lounge is a bit better, but neither of them are great.
