My United flight from Los Angeles to San Francisco was departing at around 8:30AM, and I got to the airport about two hours early. I reviewed the United Club LAX recently (which is pretty good for a domestic lounge), so figured I'd check out a new lounge. In May dozens of airlines at LAX had…

If you got for lunch the food options have taken a serious decline. I visited a few months ago, when they were still in the old building, and they no longer had those sandwiches or gourmet salads. Not sure why but they took away a lot from what was a pretty decent priority pass lounge.
Do you not need to be flying internationally in order to access the Maple Leaf lounge as a *G?
The food selection for breakfast at the Maple Leaf Lounge's have never really been that good in my experience. The selection in the domestic and trans-border lounges in YYZ for breakfast are very similar to this. It is during lunch or dinner times where the food in MLL's outshine AA, DL or UA's lunch and dinner time selections in my experience.
Lucky has been a UA *G for a long time
Any domestic segment will do for *G access to partner lounges - have done the LGA MLL LGA-ORD, the DTW LH SEN lounge DTW-EWR, etc.
@AdamR, the international restriction is only for UA*G when trying to access domestic UCs. Non-UA *Gs can access the UCs even when flying domestically. Otherwise, any *G can access any *G lounge, which the MLL is. I think there are a few exceptions - the SFO SKL for one.
@UA-NYC, I thought that Lucky can no longer participate in UA MP, so how is he *G with UA?
A physical UA *G card is required? I am assuming yes, will need to go look for that.
Lucky never said he was *G with UA, most likely has this status from LH, just a guess based on his travel reviews
June 4/18 my husband and I used the Maple Leaf Lounge T6 LAX. My pass was complimentary but had to pay for my husband $US 35. Agree with the comments that decor is nice etc however afternoon visits along windows is pretty hot. Had to ask to lower blinds. Food offered for late afternoon/dinner was soup, hummus and corn chips, edamame, and kale salad, apples and cookies. There is unlimited alcohol/beer/wine and coffee etc. In my opinion the food was not very good for a $35US charge. I would have preferred a sandwich of some sort or some type of protein to fill you up rather than offer unlimited alcohol with hardly anything to absorb it. That’s irresponsible. So we left and went to go buy something to eat. Probably won’t be going there again to pay as it was not worth it. I should mention neither of us drink more than one beer or glass of wine a day.
