Awesome flight review Mark, I've been wanting to try United Polaris. And YES a flight without Lord of the Rings or Star Wars is a lesser flight.

@__withMark yes very true I have flown Polaris numerous times and every time has been wonderful. It really pays to fly Polaris if it is a long haul flight.

Domestic U.S. airlines have been serving ice cream sundaes for ages- including international flights.. ( American has been offering them on U.S. and international flights for eons, including transcon in First as well as Business Class ) Some international based carriers even have their own versions in premium cabins.

Nice work! I flew Polaris for the first time recently. Pleasantly surprised. Best biz class bedding I’ve had so far. Nice seats. One passive aggressive cabin crew didn’t like we changed our minds and asked for express dining; otherwise very friendly staff. On the return I did need to wipe down the surfaces with three of their complimentary wet wipes since there were quite a few stains, but after that the rest of the fight was great.

Agree with the bedding, it was super comfortable. I can see cabin crew differing flight to flight especially since this is a US airline

Some observations. Remote boarding on a long haul flight is not good. United's Polaris class seats are very nice, but I find Uniteds catering and service inconsistent.

To each their own when it comes to remote boarding. If its during the day, I'm personally a fan. Agreed that the Polaris seat was VERY comfortable. The lunch service was solid with the prawn dishes, but the pre-arrival meal left much to be desired.

hi Mark, did some additional research and unfortunately, Virgin Atlantic doesn't transfer to Virgin Australia Velocity... only Marriott transfers but 3:1... other YTs also confirmed this... also aside from Aeroplan, Velocity has the 2nd best availability on business class awards... maybe thats why... only Australians can access

I believe you can transfer UR to Virgin Atlantic then you need to call Virgin Atlantic to book via Virgin Australia. Best advice is to call Virgin Atlantic to confirm the process before transferring any points over

To be closer to my husband would it be better to choose middle seats?
@__withMark

Yes choose the middle seats if your priority is to be close enough to chat with your husband! If you're in the front cabin, choose an odd numbered row. If you're in the rear business cabin, take rows either 10 or 12.

Worst catering of the big three. Did you know your valuable points or dollars bought you a frozen meal that they warmed up in the commissary rather than make it fresh. All United meals are shipped in frozen now to the airports .
