Interesting. I assume that this is a small lounge as upstairs there is the AC, a vacant space that is supposedly a lounge area and extra seating for the Legal Sea Food downstairs.

Stopped in yesterday at 8 AM. I had the club almost entirely to myself. It's still uncomfortable sitting in a row of chairs shoved next to each other especially when there are so few outlets
I do wish they'd keep the cold case though. With limited food options in the DL pier I wouldn't mind grabbing a wrap or sandwich to go.

Is there still a bar and bartender in this club during construction? My mom is flying out soon to visit me and just want to prep her if she can't get her jack and diet coke there

They do have a bar and they actually serve a sparkling wine, Veuve du Vernay, that while not stellar is drinkable and not sweet. Is this DCA only? Have been going through the non-bar DTW clubs mostly so just not sure.

How much do they charge for a bottle of Veuve du Vernay, which sells for about $8? I know Dulles isn't convenient for many swamp-dwellers, but the Air France lounge at least has legit French champagne (for free!).

The day I make my airport decision based off of which alcohol is served is the day I enter AA.

If not, I would fly IAD over DCA as the Air France lounge is relatively nice and as you pointed out Air France has legit wine compared to what is served at the big three lounge product.

Not until next year. You can also access the Turkish lounge with Priority Pass, although it can be very crowded because the Air France and British Airways lounges, which also accept Priority Pass, don't admit Priority Pass cardholders after around 2 p.m.

You could make the same point without turning to insults toward DC residents. I know it's in fashion right now to rail against the "swamp," but there are plenty of folks like me that live in the District and have nothing to do with the federal government.
