So is "chit(s)" singular or plural? How many do they give you? If it's a stamp on your boarding pass, does that provide you with unlimited drinks at the UC bar? I have a Polaris flight this month with a 6-hour layover at ORD, so this is an important question, does anyone know the answer? That said, I don't want to arrive drunk.
Most clubs print a 2nd copy of your boarding pass when you check in, stamp or mark it somehow, and tell you to give to the bartender. They typically keep it at the bar and you can drink what you like. If they don't mention anything to you when checking into the club...ask. They forget sometimes.
There has also been an "upgraded snack" available, which you ask for at the bar. Has typically been a pack of salami / cheese / toast rounds. Think $1.99 pack at Kroger / Hillshire Farms. Limit 1. Classy.

Hello from AUS, where the UC is so much less crowded than the rest of the airport. No hot food out, but they do have little containers of pasta salad, some tasty-looking brownies and four different kinds of potato chips.

Was in EWR C74 yesterday. A little more food than a month ago. Switched back from no-brand rice crispy treats to Kellog's. Seem to have several prepackaged food items (hummus/pita/veg, sandwich rolls, pasta salad, grain salad, etc). Still the same gas station burrito
More people too.

Can anyone report on how busy the DEN UC is on a Friday morning? Considering getting one-time passes and don't want to be turned away at entry.
Thank you
Thank you

Three Polaris lounges set to open later this year
While not set in stone, United Airlines plans to reopen three Polaris Lounges later this year if international demand continues its rebound.
United’s Vice President of Loyalty, Luc Bondar, whose position includes overseeing airport lounges, told Live and Let’s Fly that United hopes to open a trio of Polaris Lounges “later this year” contingent upon international travel rebounding.
While he did not name the three airports, Bondar did note that the Polaris Lounge in Washington Dulles is progressing “beautifully” and will soon be complete.

Definitely an upgrade from “remobilization planning”

my guess based on current traffic would be ORD, EWR and IAH as the flights to Europe have resumed and vaxxed Americans can now visit many places. Much of Central America and Brazil never closed so IAH makes sense. IAD is a possibility but you already have *A lounges there that are open to some premium passengers.
Unfortunately I don’t see SFO or LAX making sense now as Asia will remain closed to Americans for the foreseeable future. Hopefully the E lounge will open soon at SFO as F can be crowded and not convenient to E

Haven’t seen any work going on there, but maybe they are coming and going from outside or downstairs. In the meantime, the LH and TK lounges are still at their COVID-limited level of service.

Forgot that I was a Polaris pax at EWR C74 UC
The premium red wine served at ORD B6 UC was so so ($10-20 a bottle). Interestingly, I did not ask for any premium drink at EWR C74 UC on my return from Iceland. It was almost impossible to find a chair; I was on a Table. I only had water. I had enough drinks on the short KEF-EWR flight. Or perhaps, my mind was still in Iceland when I was physically at EWR UC. 😂😂
