I consider RDU a hole in the UC network. UA flies to IAD, ORD, SFO, DEN and EWR with mainline on a lot of those flights now. Furthermore, AC flies to YYZ. Lastly, US had a club here from 2012-2015 that AA closed and the location sits dormant. I think United opening a Club in the old US location makes sense.

I'm STL-based. I never heard of any union-related grumbling, but that's not to say there isn't any. STL has a large quantity of flights daily to all UA hubs (and AC to YYZ) but the vast majority are RJs. There would be a lot more pax flying UA here if they didn't treat STL like some remote outpost. DL & AA serve STL with mostly mainline aircraft. A UA Club (or at least a third party club in the A concourse) would help a lot.

Also FYI... all the twister damage has been repaired here in the 6 years since the storm. The A Concourse (which houses UA and DL) was never affected.

Was the really 6 years ago?!?!? I remember flying out of MCI either that day or the day after and it seems like it was...well...way less than 6 years ago.
