If pax volume and corporate contract presence isn't driving at least SOME decision making, then they truly have bought that one-way ticket to crazytown! Either that, or someone in Willis just really, really hates Cleveland! :p |
Does anyone know what the plan is for checkpoint B security? They've removed much of the equipment and there's now only 1 lane. They've also removed the Precheck lane at B. They've built a wall covering about 2/3 of the checkpoint exit. B checkpoint is now a total mess funnelling pax from regular line and premium/elite line through a single NOS.
TSA agent told me that checkpoint A now has precheck, but I was unable to verify. |

I don't know why all the muss and fuss with renovating the ticketing lobby and security checkpoints at CLE; there was nothing wrong with them. The airport has bigger fish to fry than that. Probably pork barrel type money that they have to spend on that kind of thing. |

Implementing planned system-wide United Club food improvements wouldn't have anything to do with a decision to close the club if that closure would be about a year from now. As in shortly after July 21, 2016. ;)
RNE, long having predicted the end of the CLE UC to happen after the RNC Convention and prior to the end of 2016. :cool: |

Thanks for quoting me, but where are the quote marks?

You still haven't explained why the CLE UC would close when there are far smaller stations with UCs. Perhaps it may shrink in size, but I don't see it would close.
Of course, I could be wrong. The UC may not close before January 1, 2017, as I predict it will. Such would be a tiny smudge on my otherwise sterling track-record of scrying. :cool: RNE, but if the CLE UC closes, say, in 2018, am I really all that wrong? The point is it's going to happen "soon." |
I just took a quickie trip into and out of CLE and didn't even bother to hit up the UC.
They now have a chick-fil-a in the central food court which is great except for sundays... and we took some of the refreshments available 'to go' from the generally unremarkable AirSpace lounge (thanks Amex). |

Quite honestly, it's a hunch. Well, not quite a hunch. It's more an "impression." I make my living recognizing patterns and breaks in patterns. (It's quite a good living.) I "see" a pattern with UA vis-à-vis CLE. It's not pretty.

Yes, if they stop flying to anywhere besides EWR, IAH, and ORD then the club will close. Barring that, I don't see the club going anywhere anytime soon. |

I'm arriving at CLE later today and TSMRSRNE is picking me up. Given the construction taking place outside baggage claim, where should I tell her to pick me up?

I was picked up at United baggage claim this past Thursday. I experienced no problems, just a lot of traffic at the United end of arrivals drive

Traffic on the arrivals level is pretty bad with the construction. So I would recommend the upper level instead, the departures level is a breeze in the afternoon.

Cleveland Air Show
I United will display a 737-900 this weekend at the air show. UA 2134 will ferry CLE-BKL at 6:00AM. Nice to see they still are part of the show. They also will have a ERJ 145 on display.
