Probably, but I think UA taking over more of T2 was a big part of the interim plan. If they took over more gates in T2 and maybe put in a UA Club there, that would certainly make up for any construction. Let's face it, T3 is perfectly functional but way out of date, especially compared to T3-E, T2, or the new T1.

Is T2 connected to T3 airside?

Yes, it is now. :tu:

UA even has some D-gate flights.

As of a few months ago, yes. They opened up a connector corridor. It's about a 10-minute walk from T3-E to T2, and there's not a lot in it other than some nice windows of the apron, but it is now possible to walk airside between the two terminals.

​​​​​​Even prior to Covid, the large majority of travels are short-haul. People in general can shower at home or in their hotel rooms.

Are you sure? Pre covid rpms in pacific were almost 9 billion per quarter. Domestic rpms were around 34 rpms split among the hubs. With sfo handling most of the tpacs that is a fairly even to majority intl split in sfo depending how Domestic now flows. That doesn't count non ua long haul.

Along these lines, UA maintained an arrivals lounge at SFO just to serve the TPAC morning arrivals.

IME the Polaris lounge serves its purpose in that regard for the UA flyer in J. Plus you can catch a shower on the outbound as well (which is nice coming off a tcon) which was not the case with the arrivals lounge/UC/RCC.

Unlikley, it closed pre-COVID (and was only for UA business class) and believe the space has been re-purposed. It was a nice little haven but it was not heavily used.
