Please, on UA, what route gets any love? Even if you score Polaris on a 777-300er you will still be at the mercy of UA's horrible cabin crews.

Just checked my SFO-BOS-SFO leaving June 11 is now PS service. Shows F to be pretty wide open so hope my RPU gets taken but won't hold my breath.

A quick check of the ps page of their website still lists it as only LAX/SFO<->EWR

These are rumored to NOT be CPU eligible -- does anyone have a coach itinerary with the "CPU Eligible" note?

it won't change until this officially becomes p.s. service. It is quite surprising to see all the planes loaded and the increased capacity as well for such a long time ... and no announcement. Delta announced it a while ago. Wondering what is going on here. Strange. Hope they don't pull this last minute; need to book travel and want to know if I can safely book SFO-BOS or need SFO-EWR-BOS.

Let's see if they take my RPUs on these trips, as stated F looks wide open at least on the returns by no R space listed obviously.

My bet is that United won't use ps for service on this route. They will probably use something like "Polaris Premium Transcontinental", which will be announced in early June.
Happy travel.

I recently chatted with the UA source who correctly provided the info in the first post of this thread. Additional word is that lounge access WILL be available to all F pax, and so the UA Club in BOS will have about 40 additional seats added through reconfiguration. And no CPUs will be available.
It's not known if this will be branded as p.s. or another moniker, but it will have similar attributes/benefits to the current p.s.
