It took me a moment to understand what you meant. Basically, the flight offers Polaris service, but Mike didn’t get the Polaris option, if I understand right
@jr13227 2 жыл бұрын
@@miscl_anon pretty much United has planes equipped with the Polaris business class seats, but they only brand it as Polaris business class on certain routes. This was not one of those routes. It was just branded as regular domestic first class but happened to be on a plane equipped with the Polaris seats. There’s more to the Polaris service than the seats, including amenity kits, exclusive Polaris lounge access, and special food, none of which Mike got on this flight.
