United Airlines has opened its United Polaris business class lounge at Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) in the US.

Located in Terminal 7 between Gates 73 and 75A, the lounge imitates the distinct culture of Southern California and offers a host of food and beverages to member passengers.

The new lounge is said to be United’s most recent investment at LAX after it recently completed a $573m renovation of Terminal 7.

United Airlines California president Janet Lamkin said: “Los Angeles is one of United’s most important gateways, particularly to Asia and Australia, and this lounge provides our customers with a best-in-class experience before they board their flights, especially for those customers with late-night departures and early-morning arrivals.

“We continue to expand our presence in Los Angeles, connecting customers from all over California and the US to our global network. The addition of the United Polaris lounge is yet another way we provide customers with the best possible travel experience at LAX.”

United Polaris lounge at LAX is spread across 12,000ft² and features 140 seats with a range of seating areas for productivity, privacy and dining.

The lounge also features shower suites with rainfall showerheads as well as private daybeds outfitted with Saks Fifth Avenue bedding.

The new lounge joins other United Polaris lounges located at Chicago O’Hare Airport, George Bush Intercontinental in Houston, Newark Liberty Airport and San Francisco Airport.
