  • I’m Brian Kelly, and this is my life being The Points Guy! Newark Liberty International Airport gets a lot of hate for being the less classy airport in the New York metropolitan area. Let me show you how to do EWR in five-star style!
    I’ll give you a peek into the invite-only airport speakeasy, Classified. Then we'll do a deep dive of United’s Polaris lounge.

    Brian Kelly is one of those people who goes to the airport two hours early just to use the club lounge 😂. For most other travelers the novelty wears off after the first few times.

    The thing I find intriguing about Classified is how you are made to feel special by being given an opportunity to spend a lot of money.

      LOL true, it isn’t that the same with most luxury brands/experiences?

      @@BrianKelly Yes, agreed. One thing I came to understand is that this restaurant is not part of lounge system. With other airlines, mostly European, the level of food and service that you find in Classified would be offered in their high tier lounges, but with United, if you want really good food, you have to pay for it.

    Watching these videos is like wandering into a luxurious brownstone on a Sunday open house. You fantasize about living in such a place, but you could never afford the $8,000,000 price.

    Brian - what other airlines qualify for the Polaris? Seems my SQ 21 flight qualifies.

    • @BrianKelly
      @BrianKelly  5 лет назад +1

      You can also get in with a business or first-class ticket for another long-haul Star Alliance Flight. Air China, Air India, Austrian, Ethiopian, LOT, Lufthansa, Singapore, Swiss and TAP all fly from Newark (Terminal B) so you can visit the Polaris Lounge with a biz or F ticket for those carriers then take the bus to B.

    • @BrianKelly
      @BrianKelly  5 лет назад

  • @clausstimpfig3803
    @clausstimpfig3803 5 лет назад

    well i doubt it very much that you are Living in the golden age of air travelling.Sorry. As a first class passengers i would refuse to use the polaris lounge. Take the Air France la premiere lounge, the Lufthansa First class TERMINAL or Singapore Airlines First class lounge. These are all secluded places and not a crowded polaris lounge. UA has no first class cabin anymore….
    The Food in the secret Restaurant looked very good...and so the staff. I don`t like seafood at all. Only Lobster and caviar...Oysters o.m.g. BUT it is good that you did enjoy all of that offerings.
    I agree with you when it Comes to Airports in the N.Y, area for me it was Always J.F.K...and now with that T.W.A. hotel , which is a gem, that place is even more appealing…
    Hopefully you had a good time in Wonderful Israel!!!

    • @BrianKelly
      @BrianKelly  5 лет назад +1

      Agree that those first class lounges are way better, but for a business class lounge Polaris is top. Totally beats AF/LH/Swiss and pretty much any other biz lounge by a mile
