If you go and wait at the gate, it'll end up being the wrong decision.

If you stay in the club, it'll end up being the wrong decision.

Wait at the gait? Eventually you may want to sit, and with a delayed flight, there may not be a seat.

Go to the gate, a couple of times the delayed flight was switched to another gate.

This used to happen to me a lot. For some reason, not lately. Maybe UA has gotten better. But on the BA forum there is yet another story of the board info being incorrect.
