New DTW Skyclub (Open Dec 2021)
Didn’t see this posted yet, so apologies if it is a duplicate. https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...ce9464f66.jpeg |
Its been discussed in another thread. It'll be across from the current main club (other end of train platform).
|
Discussed at the end of this thread -- https://www.flyertalk.com/forum/delt...coming-14.html
It will be in the former LH lounge space. |
I don't ever take the train at DTW, can you access this club from the train platform? Or will there be a separate escalator/stair/elevator (closer to the security checkpoint, I would assume?)
|
Interesting that they seem to be using the exact same rendering they put on the banner at MSP for the remodeled C club.
|
Will this be in addition to the A38 club or a replacement?
|
2020 is the year of the club, apparently. Everything is coming 2020.

It's DL's *vision* for the future. I wonder whether the new SC will be differentiated in some way. It would seem too small for international D1 passengers at DTW unless those departures are well spaced over the day. DTW needs more lounge space at peak times, but I don't see the point of opening an additional smaller lounge so close to the big one. OTOH, this is obviously the only suitable space unless the airport would agree to cannibalize a lot of retail space on the main concourse level. |

Taking the layout from the airport master plan, the light blue on the left is the current Center A SkyClub. The slightly darker blue area on the right would be the area of the new SkyClub, that was formerly the LH lounge and also has been uses as a conference room. Not sure where the access will be, as I doubt TSA will let the put a door and/or have passengers come across or up to the balcony to access, so my guess it will be accessed over behind the tram escalators near the "Need Help Desk" at A43. There is already a staircase internally there, but I assumed that to access the ramp tower. |

It's surprising they didn't design these spaces to have direct access to the train platform like they did for the clubs at either end of A. |
