Premier Access now called Premier Access Bag Drop

I saw an interesting thread on Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/unitedairli...cess_bag_drop/

Looks like Premier Access is now Premier Access Bag Drop at some stations.

In my experience different airports have different setups for Premier, but it looks like this is the new term. Also instead of the Premier "Bookmark" logo, they have the self-drop Step 2 logo adjacent to it.

To clarify, this is a revision of the "new signage". The existing signage from 2016 (when Polaris was rolled out) was replaced by the 2024 colorful signage, and this is now a new version for 2025.

^2024

^2025

So what does this mean? Is there any policy change or is it still the same depending on the specific layout? What about at airports that don't have kiosks at Premier (many outstations + SFO Intl + Europe/Asia/South America?)
