Already tried this, but unfortunately a) the bus gate folks try to block even UA*G from going from C to B to use the lounge, so you have to tell them you're going to A just to sneak to B; and b) there's no bus going from B to C, plus the security blocks you from reentering the bus to go B-A-C.
I'd gather that most of our schedules prevent us from being able to do the EWR security shuffle twice. They make it really hard for us to use UA*G at EWR!
I'm writing in to Customer Care suggesting this and hope yall do the same ^
EDIT: Here's a draft you can copy & paste if you'd like:
I wonder what Oscar or Kirby would say if they visited EWR United Clubs and saw just how crowded they really are?
And this is before one of the two pop-up United Clubs (which have been there for years) closes for the new United Club being built.
There is not enough capacity in the remaining United Clubs for everyone as it is. Could you imagine how it would be during construction time?
During the time frame of construction, United should either open another pop-up or at least allow Star Alliance Gold members to go to the lounges at terminal B (if Star Alliance Gold status means anything).
