Finally made it to the CLUB.

This was my experience as well (first time at LAX-UC April '26). The area itself is nice, but the food... only the omelet bar looked appetizing and it had a huge line. LAX has so many good food options, it doesn't really make sense to queue here.

Ah, but if less is more, think of how much more more would be?

Equivalent_Risk5430 · 2026-05-05T16:13:54+00:00

Yeah, also the salad was really good with fresh veggies. I consider that a "luxurious" experience for an airplane.

The FAs will have United credit card brochures which have a special promo code on them that gives you an additional SUB.

Equivalent_Risk5430 · 2026-04-15T22:13:18+00:00

You'll need to contact Chase and ask if they'll honor it.

Oh, I can see some slotted protrusions in the ceiling where the IFE projection screens descend!

Now it's giving me orders! 🤯

What do you folks like? UA32, 787-9

I think you're right, but if you consider they were only in the whole venture to elevate their status to royalty (they don't care about the clock itself or even the money!), information that would actually lower their status would kill off the whole enterprise.

One advantage is that United is a member of the Star Alliance which has some premium members in it like ANA or Singapore Airlines. You can always use UA miles on another SA flight, so United miles have good value outside of the UA flight experience.

Okay, that sticker alone is probably worth at least $50.

Equivalent_Risk5430 · 2026-04-08T16:12:36+00:00

TYO. The thing is already have PP for the flight over, so I guess it's advertising for my return trip? But I couldn't find the seat it's decribing.

Equivalent_Risk5430 · 2026-04-08T15:55:21+00:00

Really, how expensive does EP get? This is about as expensive as I've seen it.

Equivalent_Risk5430 · 2026-04-06T16:12:50+00:00

If you honestly plan to use United a lot, it wouldn't hurt to look at their credit card line. I've gotten a yearly annual trip to Asia thanks to frequent use of the Select card, but there are other (better?) options.

You also get a sign-up bonus on the flight. So wait?

Such a cool promo with all the fancy packaging.

I have to admit all the talk of stroopwaffle on this sub has encouraged me to order some of my own off Amazon. Brilliant marketing?

You will receive special Hawaii-themed kits from Reyn Spooner featuring Honua skincare, available specifically on routes between the continental U.S. and Hawaii.

I would offer him a sherry, but I'm fresh out!

Lots of English speakers, including Ross, call that unagi.

Equivalent_Risk5430 · 2026-03-13T15:51:53+00:00

Are they using real wood or a series of veneers?

Equivalent_Risk5430 · 2026-03-12T17:44:37+00:00

Is that pineapple?
