The discount applies to United Club trip passes. A United Club trip pass gives you access to all available United Club locations at your departing and connecting airports, as well as at arrival airports in select locations, for one direction of travel.
At arrival, access to our United Club locations is only available to eligible travelers who are connecting to another flight or have already made a domestic connection to their destination airport.
A trip pass is only good for you (no guests) and expires once your trip is over. Customers who buy United® Premium Plus fares can purchase a discounted trip pass on united.com and while booking their flight on the United app.
We’ll have more to share about the United Club discount before travel begins on March 30, 2019.

Yes. We’re giving members the option of using a single Global Premier Upgrade to request a move to a United® Premium Plus seat, an upgrade to the United Polaris® business class cabin, or both. If a member would like to be considered for both a United® Premium Plus seat and the United Polaris® business class cabin, we will move the member to whichever seat becomes available first.
If the first available seat is a United® Premium Plus seat and the member chose to be considered for both a United® Premium Plus seat and the United Polaris® business class cabin, we will continue looking for space in the United Polaris® business class cabin for
