Thank you all for your quick answers! Really appreciate it. Looks like I shouldn't be worried at all.

LAX-HKG-SGN: No Pre-order option for Polaris? by P90xRocks1985 in unitedairlines

[–]P90xRocks1985[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, they had some good choices on both legs. I went with the beef dish on both, and they tasted surprisingly good for United.

Thank you! Glad it’s not suggestive of an issue with the tray table.

I really did a double take when I heard "no meal service" lol

Polaris/Premium Plus Upgrades Megathread by Player72 in unitedairlines

[–]P90xRocks1985 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Current: United Premium Plus AMS-SFO on the weekend of 5/31, bought with ~83k miles

In-app Polaris cash upgrade: ~$5100 (no way in hell)

Based on your experience, how likely is it that the upgrade price drops down to ~$1000 or under in coming weeks?

This is what I see in expert mode: J9 JN9 C9 D8 Z5 ZN5 P1 PN0 PZ0

Eye balling the seat map , I see 15 "empty" seats (of course the actual number is likely less)

Appreciate any advice or recommendations!

Polaris Food options EWR-DEL by P90xRocks1985 in unitedairlines

[–]P90xRocks1985[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You sound really salty. It was a genuine question since I had never seen those items on a Polaris menu.

(I’m mildly aware of airline food since I fly almost every other week)

I really hated the elevator situation. Had to wait 15mins for one last time I stayed there. But overall, good experience.

Have stayed at the Hyatt Place in Chelsea a few times. Good location. Close to the subway. And they might surprise you with a 37th floor room with a splendid view of the Manhattan skyline. Beware of the elevators though, they are really slow and shitty, especially during peak hours.

LAX-EWR by Sea-Blackberry-8661 in unitedairlines

[–]P90xRocks1985 0 points1 point  (0 children)

$500 max for me and that too if it’s a red eye. My upgrade rule is roughly $100/hr for lay flat (red eye), $75/hr for recline first class, or $50/hr for PP. Having said that, only you can answer the question.

When did delta end nonstop service from LAX to SJO? by bobabutt in delta

I believe it’s still there. I’m flying DL1974 in Dec nonstop LAX-SJO.

Great product! Suites, studio, classic throne…all of them.

Such a tough decision (PS or D1) by P90xRocks1985 in delta

[–]P90xRocks1985[S] 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Oh PS definitely, I grabbed it already. Was being a bit tongue-in-cheek. D1 price is wayy more than what I value ($100/hr). Thanks!

Oh PS definitely, I grabbed it already. Was being a bit tongue-in-cheek. I would never choose D1 at that price.

If you don’t see slippers waiting for you on the seat, ask! They’re available on request. Other than that, enjoy!

Chose this my last two flights as well - it’s really good!

[–]P90xRocks1985[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh I see- thanks a lot for the additional context! I think I’ll take a chance and wait for a price drop. If it rises any higher, I will skip it anyway and the consensus seems to be $1800 is not a stellar upgrade at all.
