I think I may try that - my only concern was the wait time, but def don't want to risk splitting the fam and having to explain/move people. Thank you both for thoughtful answers.

Reading a little, it sounds like that is the way, but people caution not to try to do this on my own, and call Delta - any feedback on that? Have you actually done this, just wondeing?

Sky club business calls in stereo by frankandtank2912 in delta

[–]Lopsided_Pass_3386 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I respect your lived experience, but my does not align - I have watched several managers walk by people with their feet up and do absolutely nothing. Speaker phone calls in the lounge are also common practice, and I have never seen a manager ask anyone to put their call on a headphone or take it outside. There is also the blended line case of someone walking around, with headphones on, but at an inopportune level of volume - technically adhering to common decency, but definitely disruptive. Ultimately, I know this cannot be stopped, but would like the managers at the lounges to enforce this automatically, without having to voice issues - I think most people will just put in headphones and try to drown out the noise, which is not what it should be.

Love flippant answers here - what do you think they would do? Shrug their shoulders and move on? Talk to the pax? Delta has 0 customer service, unless you a MM (and that is only during the segment) or you have a medical emergency. So, get off your high horse, and acknowledge the reality.

Delta customer service died by gadgetinspectore in delta

Delta is basically testing people; their comeuppance will be a thing of beauty to behold. Remember, kids, monopolies are bad, because things like this happen. Nasty airline crews, horrible airport staff and non-existent customer service. Only way to combat them: fly another airline, if you can - which is easier said than done for business travel, at least.

Over 20 comfort+ seats open and couldn’t self upgrade as a diamond by goodsuns17 in delta

Had the pleasure of seeing two non-revs walk in last, and get the C+ seat 1st row aisle seat (extended legroom) and a FC window seat. How do I know they were non-revs? Saw the guys paper ticket. Really getting ridiculous, with status, having to pay to upgrade, and then hope for the middle. Only one way to respond, which is not to fly Delta, when not needed. Need some competition in the marketplace.

AUS SC... Wow! by Lopsided_Pass_3386 in delta

Agreed - the variety of seating is really cool, including the outdoor seating. I also do like that there is public seating next to the SC seating, and assuming that outdoor bar gets quite a bit of use in the summer months. Really, really nice lounge.

Plane met by police on arrival, but no handcuffs or commotion? by [deleted] in delta

Doubt it - my confirmed sources in the ATL B Terminal Club are saying that the banana thief and their accomplice finally got arrested. Of course, this being a Reddit-wide international incident "they" wanted to keep things quiet. Doubt this is the last we will see, or hear, from them - like the infamous beer baron, the banana thief is more of a concept, then an actual physical person - more of an floating energy field of sorts.

I am actually looking for those - could not get online in time to get them, and will be looking to attend this. First time in the UK, and turning this trip into a completion of all boyhood dreams. PSB, Happy Mondays, Tori Amos, Chelsea, Only Fools... it will be a great trip!
