United First Class SFO to Denver

United First Class SFO to Denver

The last leg of my marathon AO trip was a short United fight from San Francisco back home to Denver. Excellent Global Entry and TSA experience today as I made it from my Emirates arrival gate to the Air Canada Maple Leaf Lounge in 23 minutes. The MLL is a pleasant Star Alliance lounge with a wonderful terrasse with great plane spotting. And my United 1K allows me into the MLL unlike at the United Club. 

Lovely terrace.  Great for plane spotting.

Sweet views of San Francisco and the Bay Area on take-off.

Time to start drying out.

United's signature SFO dish, maple glazed pork, was very good.

Also home, and then not.  8 extra minutes thanks to another aircraft still on our runway.

 

Yeah, that was one crazy week of flying.  Thanks for following along.
