On my trip to Salt Lake City this week, I finally had a chance to check out the new Delta Sky Club®. The line was way too long the past two times I’ve been through Salt Lake City International Airport (SLC). This time I breezed right inside this beautiful lounge.
Access
Access is granted to passengers with memberships (purchased annually), one-time pass holders (earned from the co-branded American Express cards), Delta One®, SkyTeam premium cabin passengers, SkyTeam Elite Plus when flying internationally in premium cabins, the Centurion® and the Platinum Card® from American Express holders, Delta SkyMiles® Reserve American Express Card holders, WestJet business class passengers, and WestJet Rewards Platinum and Gold Elite. Allowed guests vary by access type. A same-day boarding pass is required to enter the Delta Sky Club®.
Anthony’s Take: This lounge is simply gorgeous. It’s packed with amenities including two bars, two buffets, a candy station, made-to-order gelato, showers, a Sky Deck, magazines, Wi-Fi, and more. I loved the local touches and even though it was busy, it did not feel crowded.
There are multiple kiosks when you enter the lounge. After credentials are verified, an escalator leads to the lounge.
At the top of the escalator, there are several desks with agents standing by to help.
Across from the agents, you’ll find the Departures board and some magazines.
I liked the art near the agents. Delta does a good job with the varied art in the different Sky Clubs®.
There was some other cool art at the top of the escalator.
Delta also set up a step and repeat for Pride Month.
Bar
There are two bars located on the left and right sides the lounge. They offer all of the standard spirits, wine, and beer that Delta provides complimentary, as well as some premium options for purchase.
Both bars had empty seats while I visited.
There are multiple espresso machines near the buffets.
There are also self-serve soda machines (with ginger ale).
Food
Lunch/dinner was being served during my visit. The buffet has soup, salads, sandwiches, cheese, cold cuts, hummus, and a few hot dishes.
Salami & Provolone and Chickpea Bagnat Sandwiches
Hummus and accompaniments
Meats and cheeses
Salads with chicken and plant-based chicken options
Tomato Panzanella Salad and Mediterranean Quinoa Salad
Italian Vegetables
Penne
Grilled Chicken Basquaise
Tomato Basil Bisque and Vegetable Beef Barley soups
Desserts included cookies, chocolate mousse, Rice Krispies treats, and brownies.
There is whole fruit and chips on the bar to the left of the entrance.
A candy bar is found towards the back of the lounge.
An attendant was making made-to-order gelato during my visit as well. The SOLATO machine operates like a Keurig for gelato with cartridges inserted to make a single serving.
This Sky Club® offers showers.
You reserve one with the kiosk near the shower area.
One was open when I walked over, so I took a few quick pictures. There are extra towels at the end of the hallway.
The shower suites include a toilet, sink, some toiletries, and a large, open shower. The light around the mirror was bright.
Some toiletries were on the counter. Others were in large bottles in the shower.
The open shower offers plenty of space.
Seating & Decor
There is tons of seating in this Sky Club®. There are lots of tables, high tops, and desks around the room.
There are several Framery Phone Pods towards the back corner away from the showers.
Long tables were near the buffet.
There were several long banquettes.
Near the back there are more seating areas with comfortable chairs.
This lounge also has a Sky Deck. You’ll find these in Atlanta, Los Angeles, New York, and Minneapolis.
Amenities
This Sky Club® offers free Wi-Fi, restrooms, magazines, showers, the Sky Deck, and the food and beverages mentioned above.
Overall Impression:
This Delta Sky Club® in Salt Lake City is a great spot to work or relax. This is now one of my favorites in Delta’s lounge network for its amenities, decor, and space.
Anthony’s Credit Card Pick: I love the lounges where The Platinum Card® from American Express grants me access. It has had a prominent place in my wallet for many years now. While it does have an annual fee of $695, it provides many travel benefits and will always be my go-to for lounge access (both Delta Sky Clubs® and Centurion Lounges) and booking airfare from the airlines to earn 5x points (up to $500,000 per calendar year).
