Rookie question: does UA offer kosher wine on SFO-MEL (or other non TLV flights) in biz? And what's kosher like at the Polaris lounge in SFO?

I flew that route in October.

Wine wasn't offered in flight although I didn't ask since I didn't want.

Lounge has no kosher but they were understanding and made a big fruit bowl for me.

On domestic flights longer than 900 miles it's an option in premium economy and business class.

I flew DL JFK-ZRH J this week (Virgin deal. Thanks Dan). Regal meal was great. Fresh and soft beef. Plate was round and seemed bigger than ever. Kudos for making a good KSML.

I am on a EWR-LAX flight right now. Similar meal. Wouldn't say restaurant quality for the meat, as it was a bit dry, probably because it was reheated more than once, but it is miles ahead of anything else I had so far (not a frequent flyer and definitely not usually in business). I never had Hermolis. Came with cute little salt and pepper shaker souvenirs.
