Is anyone familiar with EWR and can advise how I might get lounge access to any lounge in EWR with Emirates business tickets? I have AmEx platinum and I am United Gold but I'm not seeing any options for us yet.
If they tell you that you don’t have lounge access and chauffeur drive, you have a J Special (‘H’ bucket) fare, not J Saver (‘O’ bucket). But then you should not have seat selection either. Is the latter the case? It should not be one but not the other.
