Yes - it will have to wait until the new airport gets built - not sure when that will be. Of course I am sure you know it used to have a Crown Room a few years back.

So it would appear that Delta has a bit more traffic than UA.
According to DOT DL has slightly more than UA

Who needs a Sky Club when you only have to walk 2 minutes to the gate from the curb?!

I can't stand the discourse around MCI renovation, it completely misses the boat on the factual reasons a new terminal needs built. But I digress...

I do know that one of the reasons that DL gave for moving the BOS-LGA flights out of the MAT was that they wanted BOS pax to be able to make connections at LGA.
I've been offered connections through BOS in IROPs when I wasn't going to make a DTW connection to/from some smaller airport in the northeast. IIRC I once connected through BOS for TATL upgrade space, but I hated how the super short flight time prevented getting a good night's sleep.
