Is sleeping allowed at any United {Club} lounges?
 

Between flights on long layovers at the United Club (just got off a brutal redeye) I like to just close my eyes just for a bit not really sleeping, but with eyes closed- kinda slouching, relaxing. Got yelled at to sit up straight by a United dragon who said I had to be sitting up straight and not sleeping- never had a problem before lol! New Rule? Thoughts?

Reminds me of grade school!

(She kept checking up on me too lol was the most ridiculous thing!)

Maybe you were snoring loudly?

:) :D Lol! just listening to music and having my eyes closed. Pretty sure if i was sleeping I wouldn't have even heard her command me the first time!

I've never heard this before and I'm not sure what the problem would be so long as you're sitting in a chair and not snoring or otherwise disturbing other passengers.

I know right? We were the only ones in the club too, I'm thinking a power tripping bored Agent.

Wouldn't this be the straw that breaks the camels back? I frequently take short naps in lounges between flights. I think a "go to hell" would certainly be justified here

Which airport did this happen at?

I would have ignored her and gone back to sleep.

Maybe you were sleeping and it was just a nightmare?

United Clubs...
 

They continue to lead the way as the Worst of Worst )-:

Happened to me at IAH PC
 

About 2002... had a long layover coming in from Rio, and I knew where a comfy couch was. Maybe I didn't know better (low status, didn't have a membership, just had a day pass from my CO Silver membership kit), but I didn't see the harm in laying down for a bit in an empty club. I got shaken awake and was told my feet had to stay on the floor. Subsequent trips thru the same club, I would see families all sacked out on the same sofa, which struck me as unfair.

I see people resting eyes all the time, while sitting/slouching in a chair. Who cares

So, same question as a previous poster - which location?

Please send an email to United.
I am willing to bet that this was not a regular United Club employee, but someone working for "vacation coverage."

People sleep in United Clubs all the time, especially in designated quiet rooms. There is no rule.

There was once a really loud snorer in the Global First Lounge at SFO, but nobody interfered with him; we just sat elsewhere.

You will be serving all of us as United Club members by sending an email. United needs to know when an employee enforces fictitious rules.

Interesting. I was napping at a LH Senator Lounge in Frankfurt when the agent pointed me to a designated sleeping area with a comfortable lounges. As they remodel their Senator lounges they are adding more sleeping areas.

Too bad, UA can't follow suit.

That I understand more if your feet were on the couch, but slouching in a chair and closing your eyes should not be regulated.

Sounds ridiculous, went to the CX lounge at FRA recently and they went out of their way for a different passenger to prepare a 'bed' for her with some of the chairs. Looked like she stayed overnight though.
