My February and March flights had people waiting when they opened around 7.45... no big deal, you have just enough time before the first united flights board..

Just wanted to confirm the the Maple Leaf lounge at 2A is indeed open. Food offerings similar to the *A lounge (eggs, crepes, sausage, cold cuts, pastries). Was directed here by the checkin agent.
Polaris (and presumably *G?) get Access No 1 which bypasses long immigration and security queues.
I actually find the current setup far superior to the T1 setup as you clear security BEFORE the lounge and the gates are much bigger and more comfortable. Lounge itself is perfectly adequate and brighter/cleaner than the *A one with more seating. And if you don’t get lounge access they sell beer in the convenience store in case you fancy a pre-flight hair of the dog.
The GS agent said they don’t expect to move back to T1 until the end of the year.

I appreciated the architecture of the terminal from the outside.. however from the check-in counter through security to the gate it wasn’t a streamlined journey at all..
