![]() ![]() Therefore, if I have Garuda Indonesia Platinum status I will be able to access Sky Clubs flying Delta or any other SkyTeam airline as my Garuda Indonesia Platinum status includes SkyTeam Elite Plus status as well.Ĭurrently, there are two memberships that are being sold by Delta right now. SkyTeam Elite Plus status holders are able to access Sky Clubs as well when traveling on an international itinerary. Even on the domestic legs of your international itinerary, you are still entitled to Sky Club access. International travel includes: Customers traveling to/from Europe, Asia, South America, Central America, Africa, Canada and Mexico (excludes travel to/from the Carribean, Guam, Palau and Saipan.) Elite statusĭiamond, Platinum, and Gold Medallion members are entitled to Delta Sky Club access when flying Delta on an international itinerary. Just like Delta One tickets, flying a SkyTeam partner airline, Virgin Atlantic, Virgin Australia, Gol, and WestJet seated in business or first class (first class as in an international first class product) you are entitled to Sky Club access, even on your connecting Delta flights. Flying SkyTeam international first or business class It’s only if you are connecting onto a Delta One or SkyTeam partner premium cabin flight that entitles you Sky Club access. As I am connecting onto Delta One, I can access the Sky Clubs in Detroit, even though my flight from Detroit is only a domestic first class flight.Īnd yes, first class marketed flights on Delta will not get complimentary Sky Club access. However, my origin city is Detroit and I am flying first class between Detroit and Atlanta. An example would be, I am flying to Johannesburg, South Africa from Atlanta in Delta One. You’re even entitled Sky Club access when you have connecting flights in your itinerary. This also includes Delta One transcontinental flights. If you’re seated in Delta One (Delta’s name for their international business class product) you have access to Delta Sky Club. Related: How much are Delta SkyMiles worth? Delta One Plus, I love all the other benefits like the collection of lounges I can access and the 5x on airfare. I personally have The Platinum Card by American Express and find it a very valuable card partly because of Sky Club access when I fly domestic flights as my status only entitles me to Sky Club access while flying internationally. If you hold any of the other Delta co-branded credit cards like the Delta Gold or Delta Platinum, you can still access the Sky Club for $39 per guest per visit. The Delta Reserve Credit Cards also offer annual 1-time companion certificate for first class, Comfort+ or main cabin. Both Platinum cards give you access to 1300+ lounges worldwide and the annual airline incidental credit that is up to $200. The good thing about these cards is that each one holds benefits that outweigh the Sky Club membership benefits. Remember, if you’re active in the military, you can get your American Express card annual fee waived. That means if you hold any of these cards the annual fee is basically the Sky Club membership fee. The equivalent membership is $545 annually. However, you should note, these cards only give complimentary access to the cardholder and you would have to pay $39 for each guest.Ĭlearly, these cards represent greater value than the paid membership that I write more about below.
