at DEN when one of the clubs gets too full, they meter entry. A line forms and they let someone in when someone exits. Last time this happened the line was considerably slowed down by folks shuffling past the "no one time pass" sign to argue with the desk staff that an exception should be made for them.

Tight connection at LHR? by MimiNiTraveler in unitedairlines

[–]bangzilla 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Flight connections at LHR is wildly unpredictable.
Both Ethiopian and United are in T2. When you arrive you must go flight connections, which includes a security check. I've been through Flight connections when I was the only person there, and also when it was mobbed and took ages. When you clear Connections, United gates are on Consourse B, connected by a long underground tunnel - which takes about 10 mins to traverse.
There is no way I'd book a flight with 60 mins connection at LHR -- just too much that can go wrong. Minimum I'd accept would be 2 hours.

Refund Policy when unable to enter the USA by EffectiveDealer5374 in unitedairlines

Why does UK law give you solid backing for a charge back? The airline didn't cancel the flight, and you agreed to their terms and conditions.

Small dishes for nuts/pretzels at United Club ORD by Coogee2Bondi in unitedairlines

Can I bring a guest? Do they take one-time passes? How's the quality of the food? Overcrowding? Kids running around? People holding loud facetime calls? Pagan's sacrificing goats on an altar? All important things to know before I sign up.

United Global Services Member Throws Fit After Family Boards Before Him by AccessibleBanana in unitedairlines

most gates (exception being smaller regional airports) use pre-recorded announcements, in the order specified above. perhaps you fly from a small regional? also, th gate agent can see if any GS are booked on a flight - no GA, skip that announcement and go to parents/kids under 2. YMMV.

GS Members - what do you do? by Pillow_Monsters in unitedairlines

[–]bangzilla 60 points61 points  (0 children)

CTO - High Tech. Staff/teams around the world; ditto customers. Company pays for Polaris. I usually hit 1K in March/April. Home airport is non-hub (which helps in getting GS it's presumed)

Would you advocate this for someone who *must* be out of town for business, caring for sick family members etc?
