Friday- 24 Aug- over flowed. Waiting list of people (standing outside). 3 hour max prior to departure. Stayed at DL lounge and clam chowder and vegetarian ravioli was acceptable.

The one reason I use the Centurion Lounge instead of the Sky Club when I'm leaving SEA on DL (as I usually am): I'm with one or two guests who don't have their own Sky Club access. The SC is nice, but not $29 nicer than the CL.

Yep. Especially since the last time I was through the "sandwiches" were thimble sized and you'd need a half dozen to make a snack. I'm sorry but the SEA lounge is just lacking. It's better than the AS and other Priority Pass "The Club" lounges, admittedly neither of which is a particularly high bar, but the Skyclub is miles better in pretty much every way. Unfortunately last time I passed through SEA DL was twice the cost of AS.... I might like a better lounge but half price is half price @:-)
That being said I don't know why a Plat/Cent would pick the the Centurion over the Skyclub when flying Delta. I know I don't.

Stopped by around 4:20PM and was told there was a waitlist of around 15-20 mins. Decided to just go to The Club in A as that's where my flight is departing from anyways. Was hoping for some decent cocktails while waiting for my flight but prefer not waiting.

DL's well liquor selection includes Jack Daniels and Smirnoff, hardly frat party booze, which is more than United or AA can say about their free booze. I'd rather drink Jack D in a large, airy, not crowded lounge than drink Bulleit where I have to share a table because there's nowhere else to sit (as what happened on my last trip to SEA last month).

That they do. I had a couple of them on my last time though. I actually have a bottle in my home liquor cabinet.... I'll acknowledge that the Amex lounge has a better free booze selection than the SkyClub, but that doesn't change my opinion. SC > Centurion if you have access to both and are flying DL. Last time I was in SEA I was flying AS to visit some flyertalkers that will not be named

Arrived at around 3:30 PM on August 24. The lounge was crowded but no wait to enter. Could not find 2 seats together until some people left 15 mins later. Chicken sandwich was very spicy with jalapeno peppers. Friendly and quick bar service.

I was just here today since I arrived st SEA 7am. Very disappointed at the food offering. Sure some great pastries and stuff that would be described as continental breakfast but very much lacking in hot food items with the exception of oatmeal. I don’t consider boooed egg as hot food item and I already eat oatmeal 4-5 days a week when not traveling so not into that when visiting a lounge.
Amazingly the alaska lounge in terminal d tho much more spacious also was lacking hot food items.

Wondering how the SEA lounge crowding is now? AS lounges at SEA no longer allow PP. Plat Card holders can still access Centurion Lounge but, it sounds like entry may not be possible due to lounge crowding. Flying mid-day next week and hoping to have access. Frustrating , as many of us pay $550 AF and have no assurance that we will have lounge access at SEA.

Haven’t been to the lounge at SEA, but I bought a full Alaska Lounge membership with cashback and have noticed that it is about as full it was when I first had a Priority Pass. There was plenty of seating and no queue at the pancake printer. At the same time, the Centurion was fairly busy, but I could still find seats. It would be cool if they could do an Alaska deal, but the Delta partnership makes it unlikely. It would be cool if you could use the airline credit towards a lounge membership though.

Will post our experience at SEA on Tuesday. Should arrive at lounge around 11-11:30 am. Probably flying out of N terminal. (keeping our fingers crossed- I do not want to schlep to The Club.)
