IAH-OIL-TRASH

Potentially deny access to a club member while allowing access to a CHase card holder?!?!?

My example:
I occasionally fly HNL-IAH and more often from West Coast on redeyes and duck into club for coffee/quick breakfast on arrival. In some of these these cases, would not have a same-day BP and will be denied access. Meanwhile, No-status/non-member Joe flying Copa gets in with his/her Copa BP and Chase pass? Really?

This makes my membership "more exclusive"??? I guess it does. I'm excluded.

From a legal standpoint, I'm not sure UA can change access rules to paid members in the middle of the pre-paid membership period. I'm sure they can go ahead and change it, but UA could face a legal challenge.
