Hi, I am planning to take Austrian Airline business class from O'hare to Vienna in December. I understand Austrian Airlines depart from terminal 5. I also read the new United Airlines Polaris Lounge will open near gate C16 at terminal 1 in December. Customers traveling in international first or business class cabins on Star Alliance partner airlines will have access to the United Polaris Lounge.
So my question is:
Can I pass the security at terminal 1 with my Austrian Airline boarding pass? Ideally I'd like to get to airport early. Try the new United Polaris Lounge at terminal 1 first, then get back to terminal 5 to try Austrian Lounge before boarding.
