"As part of the agreement, Delta will take control of US Airways' Terminal C to create an expanded main terminal for customers. Delta will operate a total of 18 gates in Terminal C, and add one additional gate at Delta's Terminal D, for a total of 29 gates in the two terminals. A 600-foot connector will be built to connect the two terminals. Delta also will convert the existing US Airways lounge in Terminal C to a Sky Club, while continuing to operate its current Sky Club in Terminal D"
So what do you think the chances are of us getting the old Sky Club into the pilot crewroom?
The only thing missing from our current crewroom is the chalk outline of a dead body.

Also will continue to operate the shuttle out of the MAT.

Saw that, I guess LCC didn't want it for their operation. I think the original plan had us giving them the MAT and 3 gates (8-10) on D concourse. Now we'll take all of C, 1 gate at D and the shuttle at the MAT. Why then build a 600' connection from C to D? I guess that helps the jobs program.

I think 29' is a whole closer than what they wrote but
