I agree. It could be a positive sign that things are moving (slowly) forward and that the department responsible for making sure that the internet club access was the same across all club locations was told this was a 'go" and they are staying ahead of the curve in getting their price of what has to be done for a new club opening ready while they had the time. Fingers crossed.

Eh, no they don't, they use "united_club" without capitalization.

I was so impressed by the LGA club. I visited yesterday and enjoyed flatbreads, small Reuben bites, baked ziti, a full Greek salad bar with grilled chicken, a hummus bar and plentiful snacks, cheese and dessert. A HUGE improvement and my best domestic United Club experience. Seems they cut the soup, but I’m not complaining.

Made my first visit today and I too was impressed. The little Reubens were there along with margarita pizza, a really tasty and spicy vegetable pakora stew and wild mushroom pilaf (plus the cold items mentioned above). Not too crowded either. I wanted to try MLL but I don't think I was eligible (I had just landed from IAH and LGA was my final).

MSY club

Is this now open? I have a flight at the beginning of September and interested to know if it will be open by then.

The new terminal's opening was delayed until the fall, and early September is still technically summer - so you're probably out of luck.

☹ Same thing happened to me with the Polaris LAX club. Missed it by that much🗯 (to quote Max).

That is correct, based on another thread here. I have to say, UA is doing a very good job with the new club renovations/openings in terms of updates. That said, they really need to figure out the Terminal C situation at EWR - it's unacceptable as is ATM - and rip the Band-Aid off and get the F Rotunda UC modernized.

My only complaint about all the new UCs is that the bathrooms are highly inefficient when it comes to space usage. YMMV.

The fact that the lounge is inside security and that the concourse has the space to not feel like the end of times when there are broad WX delays is going to be such an improvement in my quality of life. The only complaint I would have about the lounge is that it was fairly warm when I was there (I think just because its elevated in that large open space).

Re: MSY: Slim to no chance of it being open for September.
