Underage Drinking at Delta Sky Club

Hey all,

I've got four hours to spare at an airport (waiting to be picked up) with a Delta Sky Club in a few weeks, one that does not have an open bar and is 18+ for admittance. For those wondering, I've got an Amex Platinum for entry.

DISCLOSURE yes I'm only 20, but come on. Everyone here has had alcohol before being 21 and I'm responsible and planning on just a couple beers.

Anyways, if they do card me upon entry to the DSC i'm using my real and probably won't use my fake inside.

HOWEVER if they do not card me upon entry (which I've heard they do not), would I be ok using fake at the bar? Or does anyone know if the bartenders are informed of anyone underage?

Please give me actual feedback and not a speech, thanks!

Please don’t cross post in different forums. You have and will receive answers in your other post. Alerted mods to merge.

Welcome to Flyertalk, whitf00t I am moving your thread to the Delta Forum. I have alerted A Moderator to delete the similar thread you posted in the Airline Lounge Forums. Please do not cross-post. This is against the Terms of Service

We cannot advise you on illegal matters.

As a matter of fact however, bartenders aren't informed of jack, and to the extent they check ID, they're glancing at the date of birth.

Cheers!

Is asking how to engage in illegal behavior against the Terms of Service? Asking for a friend.

Leave it to the DL forum to have the first reply be about cross-posting...and not that.

I think at the 18+ clubs with a tended bar they put a big black X on the back of your hand when you check in if you are underage.

As others have mentioned, we will not engage in discussions of illegal activities in the skyclub.

Thank you,
