United is going to require a same-day boarding pass in addition to membership to access the club.
I got an email early this morning from a movie investor who lives in New York and works mostly in Los Angeles and is a Delta SkyMiles Diamond member flying predominantly their premium transcon flights between the two cities.

What prompted the email was boarding the plane to find this seat:
