1) Will I have access to the EWR Polaris lounge? I am a 1K and my upgrade was confirmed for EWR - NRT on Polaris. My ticket was bought in the W class.
2) What time should I get to EWR to enjoy the new Polaris lounge? Flight leaves at 11AM on 7/4 on UA79.
3) The only upgrade currently confirmed is EWR - NRT, is there anything I should order/request beforehand? I understand Polaris has been going through some cuts and some things are now "on-demand".
4) Which lounge is the best to enjoy in Tokyo? There is a 3 hour layover from !:55PM to 5PM.
5) What's the best way to select seats on ANA? At the check in counter in Japan?
6) I selected seats 5D and 5G, can I do better?
7) Anything I can do to improve my chances on the NRT - EWR leg? I am wait-listed currently.
Thanks again everyone and please do let me know if there is anything else I should look out for or be aware of.
Since you booked your ticket with a partner, I think that your question should have been: "Will we have access to the EWR Polaris Lounge? Our upgrade was confirmed EWR-NRT on Polaris". If it's on the same reservation, and both of you are upgraded, you both will have access to the Polaris Lounge in EWR. If for some reason, your reservation was split and only you were upgraded, only you will have access to the Polaris Lounge.
