Apologies for back to back posts, but I want to point out that the SFO Polaris lounge is effectively useless for BR and SQ departures; both contract with other lounges (e.g. AF, VS) for their customers to use.
And, while it's possible to buy joint UA-BR/SQ tickets, AS, B6, and DL tend to be less expensive.
Just like the Delta case in Seattle, United competes directly with BR and SQ.
