Sky club 30 day membership, access to klm lounge in schiphol
Hi
Flying out from Edinburgh to bangkok via Amsterdam with klm on Sept 24th. Looking at getting a sky club 30 day membership so we can access the klm lounge in schiphol. Two questions: 1- Would i definitely get access to the lounge with a printed membership? 2- Should i get one or two memberships as i will be with my wife?

Didn't see this posted in the past two pages- if someone buys a one day DL SC pass can they apply this towards a 30 day SC membership? I understand the 30 day can go towards a full year one, but the latter was not outlined online. Thanks ^

"The cost of a One-Day Pass may be credited within 60 days of purchase and a 30-Day Membership may be credited within 60 days of expiration to the cost of an annual or three-year membership; however, the annual or three-year membership must be purchased in-person at a Club location to receive the credit. This offer is not available for purchase online. This offer is not retroactive and cannot be combined with any other offer, promotion, discount or frequent flyer program Award."

Nope. Only the 1 and 3 year memberships. From the FAQ on delta.com --

-Just got some help from @DeltaAssist and cancelled the pass. Will get 30 day pass.

I just wanted to get an update on current experiences with using the paper temporary 30 day membership card at the SkyTeam lounge at LHR. I bought the membership today, and fly in two weeks, but won't be near a SkyClub to get a "hard copy" beforehand. My SkyClub membership is linked to my SkyMiles number, so I assume it'll show up on my boarding pass.
Thanks for your help!

Trying to decide if the 30 day pass is worth it for me for this month. Most of this is European and the vague "select AF & KL lounges" has me skittish...
DFW 3:30 (not a connection, just a wait)
OSL 3:00 ("")
ZRH 2:00
AMS 3:50
Thoughts?

At least in DFW you can get the paper copy of your pass.

Did you refer to this? http://www.delta.com/skyclub/skyclub...cations.action
Pretty clear that a Sky Club membership (whether 30 day or regular) will only get you in at DFW and AMS. OSL and ZRH are not listed for access with just a Sky Club membership.

If you're on DL metal from the US to LHR, your outbound BP will show SC. However, the BP that gets printed at LHR for your return (when you may be more likely to try to access a lounge) may or may not include that you a SC member. I've had spotty success in international airports printing SC on the BP.
Fingers crossed.

30 day Sky Club no longer at Virgin Australia
I found a 2012 article about using a 30 day Sky Club pass for Virgin and was about to get one, since for $90 two people get access for a month, only to see a hidden note:
Starting Aug 1, 30-day members and members with temp cards will no longer have access to Virgin Australia Lounge.
Wonder if I buy now whether I can get grandfathered in...
This should probably be posted on the Virgin page as well as an FYI

buying for someone else?
I don't live in a city with a Skyclub at the airport. Is it possible for a friend to buy a 30 day pass in my name at their local Skyclub and then mail it to me? I want to use it for partner lounges in Europe and apparently the online version isn't accepted at these.
