Sky club hits new low
Sent to Delta Customer Care:

=================
Hi, I entered the Salt Lake City Sky Club to find that the snacks were now being dispensed from large 'pickle jars' with ladles for serving. It is unattractive, unappetizing and seems quite unhygienic.

I wish to enter a loud protest against this practice.

I have been a Crown Room now Sky club member for many years and this is a new low.

=================

This is an outrage! What's next, bobbing for Biscoff? Really classy Delta... giant pickle jars.

Are these showing up in other locations?

Indeed an outrage but I'd bob for some half-sour kosher pickles at the Fairway in Ridgewood, NJ =)

Same in Cincinnati.

Looks like they picked them up at Sam's Club or Costco.

What's different than the trail mix & dried fruit that's been served that way for a long time?

Yup, saw some in MSP... I admit, they are kind of tacky... But I still got treats from them

I agree that is disgusting. I wouldn't want to get a SC membership in the future if this doesn't change.

Changed nuts?
I like the new nuts they had at the Skyclub in Seattle. I think it was Almond and another nuts (I forgot).

It's clear you haven't been to B10 in some time....the Bobbing for Biscoff's is setup near the Agent Desk, if your able to pull up 3 Biscoff's they award you with a SWU cert (if you pull up 6 you receive a 25K EQM bonus)

And if you can acually use the SWU you get a case of Biscoff's...

Or at least until you are old enough to purchase one, right?
