Or

Will Delta find ways to fill the clubs with members and day-trippers willing to pay something to gain entrance?

And

Will the reduction in tag-a-long guests drinking complimentary beverages and nibbling on snacks lower catering expenses enough to make up for the increase in spending due to enhanced food and service offerings?
I doubt any of this will happen May 1st. There are plenty of us who now have "Executive" memberships that can still bring along folks. Amex folks can still get in. Day passes will still be available. Very little will change day one. Over time, maybe a reduction a bit. But May 1st? I don't see it being much different.
