I'd guess that DL will close the Sky Club in the satellite terminal and take over what was the Continental club (and originally a Crown Room before that) in the main terminal. No real reason for them to keep a sky club out in the satellite terminal if they are only using one gate there on a regular basis.

I always wondered why they didn't use the main terminal more to start with. At least for us DL regulars it would have saved many a long walk through the tunnel to the satellite gates.
CO (and eventually UA) had A5-A8 while A9-A12 was one huge regional gate (which is/was in the process of being converted into regular gates as there are less CR2s and more CR9/E170/etc.)

WN will eventually be moving to B after US/AA re-organize gate-wise. That will be difficult since UA splits the two of them up, although maybe if you move Air Canada you can give US/AA everything before there and in the current AA section would be Air Canada/WN/whomever else.

I don't think they will close the SC on the satellite as DL could re-take A18-A22 in the future. No doubt it'll definitely have less people as most of the flights will be leaving out of the main terminal. Keep in mind that the AMS flight has to leave out of A14, and the 767s to LHR could possibly go out of A13. I bet most if not all of the 757s will have to use the satellite terminal too.

WN will be staying for 2 years if not less.
