Yes. You should have no issues at JFK. but just in case have the D1 boarding pass ready and if any issue ask for a supervisor. I've never had any issue with SC access on D1 ticket in either direction JFK LAX or LAX JFK.

Does anyone know if food is available during late hours. Specifically at LAX around 9-11 PM?
Thanks

Some snack food will be available, nuts, pretzels, popcorn, olives, that kind of stuff. Sometimes the soup is still out late, but don't hold your breath!

On Saturday I was flying BOS-JFK-LAX in F/D1. The agent in BOS almost did not grant me access. She thought I was only allowed entrance at the JFK SC. She said the rules were confusing and had me wait while she read them. I was then given access because she wasn't sure.

Any recent experience trying to gain entry flying F on non-DL1 routes? The rules appear to have been rewritten to include JFK-LAX/SFO transcons only. Flying F to LAS soon and was hoping to use the club at JFK before the flight.

Odd, the page seems to have changed in the last few months --
https://web.archive.org/web/20150905...-of-terms.html
The lounge locations page still calls it "Transcontinental First Class, Delta One, or Full Y–Class Passenger".

I did find the below and it seems you can filter down to see if access is available but they appear to have removed both PHX and LAS from the list.

This does seem a bit strange as I'm in Business from JFK-PDX next month as they have named that from FC.

I also noticed the club search function still allows searching by "transcon F/full Y", but it seams that the "access rules page" (as revised specifically referencing only Delta 1 pax) would be the point of reference if there were any uncertainty. Either way, there's an oversight in not syncing the search function and the stated rules.
If no one has tried since the rule page has been revised, I will do so and report back!

Delta Sky Clubs are accessible to passengers holding same-day
international First Class or Delta One tickets.
Sky Clubs may be enjoyed by our transcontinental Delta One passengers
with same-day travel on a nonstop Delta flight between: New Yorks JFK
to/from Denver, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, Portland, Phoenix, San Diego,
Seattle, and San Francisco.
The thing that irks me is that there is no consistency in what Delta calls Business/First unless it's D1 even though they's spent all this money trying to make it seem like it's all cut and dry through their marketing. Even with D1 they are still boarding (mostly) as Premium, the seats are (mostly) still Business Elite, etc. The only advantage is always having the "D1 Lounge" to myself when flying out of LAX.
I'm happy to report back on my experience with the Sky Club and flying this elusive "Business Class" in a few weeks.

I reached out to Delta directly earlier today and got the following standardized reply:

Not really following. Delta One is only JFK-LAX/SFO. Yes, there are "business" fares on available on other routes (JFK non-stop transcons and continuation flights of international flights), but they don't really mean anything (well, the JFK non-stop transcons get lounge access). There's a reason they rebranded Business Elite as Delta One (because too many people confused "Business" with "Business Elite"). How hard is it to remember that only JFK-LAX/SFO are Delta One flights?
