Club Level Highlight
Club Level Feature – United Airlines
As a neighbor of the Greater Philadelphia area, United Airline’s hub at Newark Liberty International Airport offers access to nearly 400 daily flights to more than 150 destinations across the world. This includes our six daily flights between Newark and London Heathrow, which consist of a morning flight and hourly evening service between 6:00pm and 10:00pm.
The shuttle like service between these two key business destinations is operated with the newly reconfigured Boeing 767-300ER aircraft. The airplane’s cabin features 46 United Polaris business seats in the premium cabin and 22 United Premium Plus seats. Additionally, we have just introduced that Polaris customers on this route will receive complimentary baggage delivery exclusively to five Marriott International properties. Whether they are bound for the boardroom or Big Ben, this first-of-its-kind service will allow United Polaris customers to start their London journey the moment they clear customs and drop their bags.
