When I used to travel in BusinessFirst, I spent as little time in the club as possible, usually just time for a drink and a snack before departure. The Polaris Lounge is a much more pleasant place to be and so I'm now having a meal and a few drinks before a flight.

I frankly don't know what they're going to do at EWR.
The need to keep the GFLs around and make them GS lounges. The tangible benefits of being GS traveling internally (GFL and GF to use GPUs on) will be gone very soon.
