I see it will still be provided by TMobile, so I’m guessing it will be like at the United and AA lounge locations- a day access card. More information found here.

Since I wasn’t flying in March or early April of this year, I waited until today to renew. My membership is now valid through April 16, 2010. Same price as last year, $315 + no tax for basic Club membership. Was a pretty long hold until I got an agent (usually they pick up right away- very convenient 1-800-828-8522 with no menu tree, an agent picks up), so maybe a flurry of new members with the two added renewal promotions (either 2 months extra for free or 1,500 preferred qualifying miles, I chose the latter). Both promotions expire July 1, 2009. RNW15 is the code you use for 1,500 preferred qualifying miles which I blogged about a few weeks ago.

As usual, I asked them to email me a receipt and a printout of my membership just incase they want to card me (by card I mean, Club card, not driver’s license/ID). That actually happened to me once in a US Airways Club in PHX. Luckily I had the printout. Was promised card would arrive within 3-4 weeks.

While I connect in PHX next week, I will try out the re-opened lower ‘A’ gates Club (above A7/A9) which was severly damaged during a thunderstorm back in August 2008. Apparently they have brand new furniture in the Club. Anyway, here’s evidence of the damage. When I spoke to the Club agent a few days after the incident, I was told someone could have been seriously injured. Apparently, just seconds before the impact, a snob had to be repeatedly told to move to a different seating area away from the windows. After multiple pleadings, the agent yelled “Move away from the windows, NOW!” to which the passenger finally obliged. Literally seconds later, a big blow came in from outside and the result was this:

I have no idea!

The ‘DR500′ US Airways Club promotion recently expired and I was wondering if they were going to offer anything new for Club renewals. Lo and behold I got a reply from the US Airways Club which made my day. Patience is still a virtue? Guess it still is!

Mr. Kinglobjaw,

Thank you for contacting US Airways Club Services.

The DR500 promotion has expired, but if you renew online and use
promotion code RNW15 we will added 1500 bonus preferred miles to your account.

We appreciate your continued patronage of US Airways.

So now instead of getting 500 EQMs I will be getting 1,500! I didn’t renew in March since my next trip is in late April, so I’ll renew in a few days online to take advantage of the improved offer. Besides, why waste a month of membership if I wasn’t going to use in it March anyway! If anyone else is considering renewing, feel free to use the special promo code- RNW15. I’m sure it isn’t just for Kinglobjaw! If you’re thinking of joining Club for the very first time in your life, 3,000 EQMs for new members is still available until April 30, 2009. More on this here.

Have a nice clicK life,

-Mark
