Is the United Club membership worth it?

Just get the CC, annual fee is cheaper than paying for the membership itself

I can expense it but probs would’ve paid for it myself if not. Delta lounges are much better IMO but most united lounges are nice to get away from the gate

like

Think it depends on if you are in a hub city and how long you tend to hang around the airport. I have a membership and it works well for me because I fly United almost exclusively and I’m one to get to the airport early to reduce the stress of potentially being late. If you tend to get there more on time, you might not think it’s worth it

like

Yes - they are more comfortable than sitting at the gate and the food, though not usually amazing, is good enough to serve as a meal in a pinch

like

Another cheaper alternative to United Club: Maple Leaf Club Worldwide. 99% same access, lower fee.

I'm 1K, but I use my Senator card to access the United Club, so I have no need. I've always flown enough to get Gold on one of the other Star Alliance carriers along with 1K so I don't need Club membership. If you fly >150k a year it's something to consider. If I didn't, I don't think I would bother.
