Asked for SA card again. I've never even seen one!
Hi all -
For about the 5th I was in some dinky airport and was asked to show my Star Alliance Gold card to get into the lounge. This time it was in Kharkiv in Ukraine. No big deal, the crappy lounge also took priority pass select (but only if you physically had the card!). But, this is not the first time I've been asked for the card and denied because I don't have it. It says UA*GOLD on the boarding pass, but that isn't good enough sometimes.
I've never actually see an SA card - is that a thing? I have never gotten a welcome packet or anything - I assumed it all goes through UA. What's up?
