GM flying DTW-BOS-AMS: Will I have access to SC in DTW?
I'm sure this has been discussed here before, but I haven't found a particular thread on the topic. Can GMs access a SC prior to departing on a domestic flight on an itinerary that includes an international flight?

As long as you are leaving on a same-day international flight on SkyTeam, you should be fine.

short answer: yes, you should...
long answer: maybe -- you have to find an agent that is aware that GMs are now STE+.

Yes. Actually, this is one case where the Delta website has quite good information:

Yes, assuming it is a single revenue or award ticket on SkyTeam with just a connection in BOS, not a stopover of more than 24hours.
