MK,

Not at all at the time of the event (2:30P), and I do agree with that sentiment, it was at least 90 minutes until the rush of flights to ATL, BOS, DTW, LGA MSP, RDU .

We all know that many DL employees say things that are not correct. Ever been on a plane when they say that they know 3 electronic devices have not been shut off yet, or some such nonsense?

Having said that, yes the rules technically state that the guest must leave when the cardholder leaves. I have never seen it enforced the few times I have brought a guest and left earlier than the guest myself.

Skyclub Access

I tried searching for a few minutes and couldn't find the answer I was looking for. Here's my question:

I am flying next week on two separate itineraries 1) AS PDX-SEA and 2) SEA-JFK on DL. I leave PDX around 8pm and I'm taking the redeye to JFK thereafter.

I have a Delta Amex Reserve card. My question is will I have club access in PDX? The rules for access on the DL site say, "Delta Reserve Credit Cardholders traveling on a Delta coded or Delta operated flight." It clearly doesn't say access for cardholders traveling on a DL flight from that airport, but I can assume they mean that day.

Any experience?

Is that AS PDX-SEA flight not a codeshare with Delta? If it is, I think you can weasel into the 'Delta coded flight' requirement, even though your boarding pass will be under the AS flight number.

You should be fine, even if your DL flight is not leaving from that airport. I frequently use the SkyClubs as arrivals lounges.

Sky Club Access Question

This summer, I will be traveling ORD-JFK-VCE. I will be in F/J for the trip, so I know I should get club access. However ORD-JFK and JFK-VCE are separate PNRs and reservations, so should there by any issue accessing the club in ORD?

Thanks!

WK

As long as you show a ticket for same-day international travel you should be fine. I suspect you will through-check your bags too.

I had the same experience recently where I had separate PNRs and reservations for the domestic and international legs. The skyclub attendant told me that normally I wouldn't be allowed but would make a special "exception" even I told him that wasn't correct. I didn't argue as he let me in without much of a hassle.

I have question about the Sky Club One Day Pass.

I noticed there is a space for "SkyMiles Number" on the pass. What if the person using it does not have a SkyMiles account? Can they still use the pass?

Another one of the masses w/ no interest in SM account. Where is that thread about % of pax w/o SM account?

Still seems cray cray. Free skymiles. No expiration until death. Why not??

Skyclub access??

Just got into the ATL Skyclub with my Skymiles sliver card (not the regular AMEX Platinum - The skymiles silver one) for free. Up untill now, I have been charged 25 $ - The discounted rate for holders of that card. Has something changed?

P.S: I am SM PM and have a J class bp today, if any of that is relevant.

Cheers
