Didn't p.s. F already receive IFL access?

This is great news! Maybe this is a start of more amenities being added to p.s.

My partner and I returned home in upgraded C JFK-SFO on Saturday, we're both 1K. I'm an RCC member; he is not.
I about fell over when the agent handed us each 2 drink chits, and him a wifi card. Said she thought United was doing the right thing by these changes.
We never got anything in the SFO RCC on our outbound, also in C.

When I was traveling 2 weekends ago, the agent at JFK RCC tried to hand me a T-Mobile wi-fi card, even though I'm a member but was traveling in p.s. C at the time.
Somewhat related, but latest rumor from an "internal memo" is UA will be replacing seats in p.s. F toward the end of next year. Then again, this is coming from a FA, so we'll need to take it with a grain of salt.

Unfortunately I believe that is the case. As a p.s. C passenger this weekend I was allowed RCC access at my origin in JFK, but denied access upon arriving at SFO before my onward connection to final destination.
The SFO RCC woman was adamant that only SFO-JFK p.s. C pax could get RCC admittance without being RCC members... YMMV

Can someone please confirm whether 1Ks flying PS will get RCC access even when flying Y? I wonder if there is a UA profile code for this?

to me, not a great bennie. We usually get upgraded to C, but one of the values of C and F, is NOT having to spend time at the airport.

I was about to bump the thread I started a few weeks ago as I had a ps flight coming up and wanted to know if this was still on. Seems strange they would have not updated the Web site.

Thanks Op
Flew jfk-sfo C this morning and enjoyed the RCC. I'd much rather sit with a latte for fifteen than on the plane while everyone brushes by ^

Once I was on p.s. F from JFK to LAX and they let me into the IFL upon arrival at LAX just to get some food. I think SFO RCC and IFL is known for being very zealous about keeping people out.

Anyone (regardless of status) gets access in C or F, including as others have said, drink chits and wifi (both of which I'm using at the moment
)

How many 1Ks and UGSs are there that don't already have RCC memberships? Seems like a benefit that wouldn't apply to many.
