The menu of the new airport lounge in New Orleans features muffuletta sliders with pimento cheese, gumbo and rice, Creole egg salad, and Cajun pepper dip. The drink selection, on the other hand, has local staples such as Abita Amber beer and Southern Comfort, apart from a range of wine, beer, and cocktail options.

The New Orleans United Club has 95 seats, with various types of seating areas for productivity, privacy, and dining. The airport lounge at the New Orleans airport provides free high-speed Wi-Fi and is said to have several power outlets and USB ports.

According to United Airlines, the New Orleans United Club location is the first club to open under the brand in 2020 and is part of its ongoing efforts to renovate and introduce new locations across its network.
