re: United Club Rant

Those extra cards are $175 each.

1 card plus 5 extras split evenly is still almost $300 a year. So still less expensive, but hardly cheap depending on how much they fly.

We pay for an extra card, but just 1. While its a nice perk, we try to fly direct and there are times where we don't even go in the club if we only have 20 minutes before boarding starts. And sometimes it makes sense to just pay the extra $50 for family if we have a good bit of a wait.
