I went to the *Alliance web site, and when i entered the club locator, along with the paid UAL Club membership, and economy travel, the two UAL and Kris club came up. I really haven't a clue.
There is a thread about the Silver Kris lounge at SFO. It used to be that UA flyers could access it but apparently too many were doing it at SFO when there's a United Club right nearby so that lounge has adopted their own special policies. If you're a UA flyer then you'll need to use the Club.
