I never book it in advance as not sure how much time I will have at EWR - it's my home airport. But the couple of times I have been to Classified I have to say the exclusivity and service and food are worth the price. Haven't been to the Polaris Lounge at EWR yet so will give that a try on my next Int'l trip in August. Suspect the food will be better at Classified but Polaris Lounge seems, from initial reports, as worthy of trying out!
