Very nice lounge with buffet, coffee station, bar, sitting area, and three bathrooms.

The buffet area has healthy options (salads, fruits, vegetables) and vegetarian options (wraps/soups). They also have food allergy warning on small signs above the buffet area for travelers to make safe decisions about the food. Drinks at the bar are NOT free and you will be charged!

They can still deny entry into the lounge if it’s full. Terms may change so make sure to check/google United’s lounge entry terms...

We had first class tickets from RDU to Chicago and from Chicago to Bangkok. Chicago to Bangkok switched to one of United’s sister airlines. Since the switch to a sister airline, we were denied access to the lounge. So BEWARE if you have a similar flight situation. United is definitely not getting my first class business again - plenty of...
