It's important never to read the ingredients on an item like that.

Hope they have it for my Sunday morning departure

Probably better than anything served for breakfast on most domestic flights - unless something has changed in last 3 weeks.

Does UA go out to vendors and ask for breakfast items with 440 calories?

The IAH burrito wins the protein war...

Great. Now I have IAH burrito envy. Flying UA from SFO has never been the same since Andale T3 closed.

You can get the all day breakfast burrito at SF Giants Clubhouse with priority pass - had it last Tuesday, I'd give it an "ok". Do not get the filet mignon sliders - they were awful

Fairly substantial 3 1/2 - 4” diameter (my biscuit is not quite round). Served with ketchup or hot sauce packets. I consider this a major step forward in the pandemic recovery - and maybe the bioengineered food ingredients fight Covid
I've had countless iterations of this very sandwich at Holiday Inn Express locations throughout the SW this year - and as a Sysco shareholder, I will say they are stunningly delicious and I am glad to see them make their way into the UC.

IAD and DCA compete for traffic. And UA is mostly at IAD, while DL, AA and Alaska are at DCA. While only IAD has international flights, there are a fair amount of people flying out of DCA to where they will connect on to international flights. And this will make that more attractive.

According to the UA and Star Alliance websites, they do not indicate that the contract Plaza Lounge is available to United Club members.

Sorry, the notion that some meaningful number of people who would otherwise fly UA nonstop international from IAD will instead fly one-stop via DCA due solely to a Centurion lounge is . . . not realistic.

Especially with such amazing partner lounges at IAD where one can get a quasi-version of a typical Polaris Lounge experience minus the restaurant section.

Anyone else giving United poor marks in the surveys for having UC closed when departing from such an airport? Nothing like a locked door in your face and an open AA club across the terminal . . .

Nope. Just bring your Priority Pass card.

On the contrary, I know a lot of people who already take a connection out of DCA when it is cheaper. The Centurion would make it more attractive.

People make buying choices based on many factors, not solely one.
