United Club @ Houston George Bush Intercontinental Airport — Houston, Texas
Temps: Hi 98F (37C) / Lo 79F (26C)
At 4:45p today we will be flying across The Pond to Amsterdam, Netherlands …
… and we will be doing it in style. A couple of weeks ago I was alerted to a great deal on the UA website to upgrade our Economy Plus seats to BusinessFirst using a combination of $s and miles. As I am unable to sleep on overnight flights, I decided the upgrade would be worth the splurge. Perhaps I’ll actually get some shuteye this time since the BusinessFirst cabin features lie-flat seats.

We clear the upgrade waitlist 72 hours before the flight and select our BusinessFirst seats.
We’re enjoying the United Club amenities as we wait for our flight to be called. Everything looks to be running smoothly for an on-time departure, but we still have a few hours to go.
The rest of the travel-day story will be in the next post.
