The Skyclub Manila is probably the most dated and one of the worst International Delta Skyclubs in the system. Although international airline clubs tend to be of higher rankings and have better amenities than domestic clubs, this is only because they have to compete with 4 and 5 star international airlines, especially in Asia where airlines like Singapore, JAL, Thai, Cathay Pacific and Asiana dominate. Despite this, the Manila Skyclub is lacking all allure. The Manila Skyclub dates back to ...

Delta, as part of their continued plan to upgrade airport amenities, has announced their first outdoor terraces, which will be located in their SkyClub's in Atlanta's Concourse F and New York/JFK's recently renovated Terminal 4.

Though I am not a big fan of Delta, I do give them credit for their continuous improvements to the airport and on-board experience. In addition to renovating their two main ...

The LAX Delta Skyclub is probably one of my least favorite clubs that I use to be a regular to. Thankfully, I’ve moved away from LA to San Diego, so I rarely find myself at the LAX airport, but from time to time I do pass through and stop by the club. Normally if the Alaska Boardroom is open, I make the short trek to T6 and spend my layover in what I find to be the nicest and newest lounge in the airport, however if it’s closed or I don’t have a long layover, I’ll ...

I had a flight on Monday using same-day confirmed (awesome Diamond perk), but flying standby because the flight I wanted was oversold.  As soon as I arrived at the SkyClub they confirmed my seat, which was ironic because five minutes earlier the gate agent said it was impossible.  Needless to say I got on my flight to DTW and was upgraded on my second leg to PHX.  On my flight to DTW I got stuck in a middle seat, but they put me to an exit row to avoid complete misery.  I ...

When I originally booked my V Australia Business Class ticket via Delta miles, I had a long layover at LAX that I was hoping to change as the date got closer.  Eventually I convinced myself that this was a good thing, I could get out of the airport a bit before a 15 hour flight.  That and I struggled with Delta's famous award availability.  So I embraced this and decided to make the most of the time I had.

I planned on going for a run in the nice warm LA air, as I try ...

Delta is now joining United, American, US Airways and Alaska in charging for some alcoholic drinks in their club lounges. (Are there any other domestic US lounges I'm missing?)

I received the below in an email from Delta:

This seems similar to the offerings at United Clubs (formerly Red Carpet Club and/or Continental President's Club).  Basic cocktails are free, with higher end pours available for purchase. 

Interesting ...
