United Rolls Out Polaris Business Class Branding on Select Domestic Flights

United Airlines has rebranded its forward cabin on select domestic nonstop flights as Polaris business class, effective immediately. This applies to premium transcontinental markets (Newark to Los Angeles and San Francisco) and long-haul Hawaii markets (Chicago and Newark to Honolulu and Maui). The primary implication for frequent flyers is that passengers booked in these Polaris-branded cabins (excluding future "basic" Polaris fares) are now eligible for access to United Polaris Lounges, replacing the previous United Club access. This aligns United with competitors like American and Delta, who offer premium lounge access on their respective premium domestic products
