Delta Sky Club had a significant year in 2024 with the introduction of Delta One Lounges, marking a new phase for premium travel. The airline also opened a new Sky Club in Charlotte (CLT) and expanded existing clubs at LaGuardia (LGA).

In 2025, Delta will continue to expand its lounge offerings. At Atlanta's Hartsfield-Jackson Airport (ATL), a new 23,000 square-foot club will open near Gate D16 as part of the Concourse D renovation. This is the first new club at ATL since 2016 and will be the second-largest there. Additionally, upgrades are planned for clubs on Concourses A and C.

Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (SEA) will see its first Delta One Lounge this summer, featuring an open-air terrace with views of Mt. Rainier. Located on the upper level of SEA’s second Delta Sky Club near Gate 11 on Concourse A, it offers nearly 14,000 square feet for travelers to relax before flights.

Salt Lake City International Airport (SLC) will welcome a second club on Concourse B in late 2025. This nearly 34,000-square-foot space joins another club that opened in 2020 on Concourse A.

Philadelphia International Airport (PHL) will see an expansion of over 2,000 square feet to its Delta Sky Club near the Terminal D/E connector by late 2025.

Delta’s Local Flavor program highlights emerging hometown chefs through monthlong residencies at various clubs. This year, Detroit's initiative includes chefs Ji Hye Kim from Miss Kim in Ann Arbor, Rohani Foulkes from Folk in Detroit, and George Azar from Flowers of Vietnam. Previously featured was Hamissi Mamba from Baobab Fare in Detroit.

The Delta Sky Club network remains the largest among U.S. domestic airlines with 56 lounges covering over 700,000 square feet. Notably last year, Travel Weekly's Magellan awards named JFK's Delta One Lounge as the best by a U.S. carrier while USA Today recognized SEA and BOS clubs among the country's best.
