Count me in! Oscar will probably personally put a black mark in my profile if he gets another email from me.

Write-in campaign on Wednesday 10/16 about United's failure to honor their commitment to allow lifetime club members to access the club regardless of the airline they're flying.
Be sure to mention that both AA and DL have honored their commitment to their lifetime club members:
https://www.delta.com/us/en/delta-sky-club/access
https://viewfromthewing.com/lifetime...irlines-ticket
Specific case examples of why you invested in the lifetime membership or why you may need to fly another airline (in my case, due to the CLE hub closure, etc) will certainly be useful.
Write to all that are applicable:
Oscar: [email protected]
United Club: [email protected]
If you are 1K/GS email the contact on the back of your premier card.

I'm glad American Airlines changed the policy to allow lifetime members entrance to the Admirals Club regardless of airline flown. I wish United Airlines would follow suit. I am fortunate to have lifetime memberships with both AA & UA. Honestly how many people have lifetime United Club memberships? I don't think the number is so great that members with lifetime United Club membership who might be flying another airline would be more than 1% of total members visiting a Club in any one day. I hope United & Oscar do the right thing and follow American and Delta in allowing lifetime member access period.

United Club's current scanner software supports non-UA boarding passes. I just scan my phone app's club card barcode (expiration 2099) then scan my non-UA boarding pass barcode. Beep, beep, done. The UA person doesn't need to lift a finger.
I don't agree that retraining agents will be any significant cost.

Without reading through all the posts, what gives you the idea that the CLE club is closing? When UA renegotiated its lease for CLE, it agreed to keep the UA Club open through 2029?

I don’t think it’s ever safe to assume that UA will do the right thing if they think it will cost them even a penny more.
