At SFO do you recommend the United Club or the United Polaris Lounge in international terminal G? Is there a difference?

Polaris hands down, this isn’t even a rational question. A rational question would be do you get access to the Polaris lounge?

Then yes, Polaris, not even close to a crappy UC.

Ok thanks - and I get it’s a no brainer for you all, but I asked the question because I didn’t know or have context to know on my own. No need to belittle my lack of experience - both of these responses are helpful but also make it sound like I’m an idiot 🙄

“That’s not even a rational question” is harsh. And just because YOU didn’t find it belittling doesn’t mean my experience is invalid.

When someone calls someone out on rudeness, why is it so hard to say “oh I’m sorry” and then just leave it at that? Or, if you weren’t personally called out, to think to yourself “interesting, I wouldn’t have taken it that way but it’s good to know those words can have different consequences than I may intend”?

like

The only question is: do you have access to Polaris lounges? If so, that’s the choice

like

I had access and I enjoyed the experience. Now for the long flight!

Like K1 said, this is a no brainer. United Club is barely passable as a lounge while the Polaris lounge is competitive with all but maybe the best business class lounges in the world.
