Yeap, TPA is more activity in total and for UA per BTS

2018 Total UA only (Mainline?)

TPA 10,3 M 1.05M

Last time I was in the SAT lounge, one of the agents approached another pax and me to let us know that our captain wanted to depart for IAH early. ^

the Continental Presidents Club in the old terminal at SAT had its own restrooms. Im sure it was a cost decision to not add them n the new one - and theres just not a lot of space either. I remember the old club - hardly ever anyone in there. It was nice and peaceful. Not so much now, but the staff are amazing!

MSY United Club

So, the new MSY terminal opened today. There is supposed to be a United Club. Has anyone been in or checked-out the club's status?

Interesting because Delta will open their club tomorrow, same day as the new terminal. Doubt it was the airport and more so United slowing the opening of the new club.

Nope. Because the flooring in the United Club had to be taken up to make repairs to the sewer lines for the airport.

Check out this thread and Post 131 specifically.

Nope. See my post just above yours. It has nothing to do with United. It is an airport construction issue.

The United Club is on the first floor of the new terminal. Delta’s club is not.

It is, especially since UA doesn't run a spoke-spoke route to CUN during spring break like they do from MSY.

I can't imagine repairing the flooring is going to take another 3 months. Hoping for a December opening.

Gate agent today said that the MSY United Club should be open around the first of the year.
