Is that the one that goes downstairs? Or is that in D? I'm not sure I've had the displeasure of B10. I'll have to stroll by next week.

It's the one where you walk in and its just one medium-sized room with wall-to-wall people and no class.

I will give B10 one thing... AFAIK, its the only club that received an increase in the number of restroom facilities when the club was reamed out for mass occupancy.

Other clubs were reconfigured for mass increases in occupancy and no one on Va Ave had the common sense to think... "Hmmm... twice as many people, perhaps we need twice as many loos."

Going to the "B" SC is like going to a "B" Movie it can't get any worse off then this !
What Delta needs to do is move the SC up to roof level and expand the floor space 8 or more times !

-OR- consider placing flights with equipment smaller than the B717 on the
"B" Concourse to match the capacity of the existing club with the traffic
pattern. Small planes - small SC !

Like other posters time permitting I avoid this club and use a more suitable
user friendly SC - "F" is a long long way to go - "E" next best bet and then
"A" but that can be troublesome when the "B" is busting out all over !

I googled - now I remember that one - It should be condemned. Notice the food is close to the bathrooms that I refer to as indoor port a potty's

Took me a minute to realize what the term "B10" meant. I keep Evernote journals on all the SC's I visit so I remember which ones are good/bad/ugly, etc.. My B10 notes only contain this: "Small, crowded". Seriously, it's a glorified living room - but in Delta's defense, there's probably only so many spaces they can take advantage of. I like the idea of expanding this SC to a rooftop location. All of the other SC's in ATL are pretty decent so perhaps this one is on their radar for some improvement.

I can't count the number of times I have walked in and right back out of B10 due to the zoo atmosphere...

Way back when, back when I first bought my Sky Club membership, B10 was the first club I visited. Buyer's remorse was a definite thing I experienced...

On the plus side, everything's been an improvement since then.

Seriously, B10... not even once. It's worth the hassle to ride the train to use the palatial clubs in E or F if your layover is long enough.

"palatial"??? Compared to B10 maybe, but hardly in comparison with other domestic and international clubs I have visited. Heck, I would say AA's clubs in DFW and LAX are palatial to any of DL'S blue and white disco halls..

The standalone bathrooms are the best part of that club and the only reason to even consider going there.

Unless a really bad smelling person left before you. I find them to be quite stagnant and ugh.

The idea was right - unisex to increase chances of availability - privacy and a sink and all. Just not a fan of them.

This is the CRJ200 of clubs.
