As of 1/30/2020 Delta is no longer allowing gold card members to enter their Sky Club.
This has been a life saver when i have a long layover. I’m done lamenting this change once I saw this offer for the Delta Amex Platinum card with lounge access (yes its worth it to me). I’ll transfer over my miles from my gold card and then cancel it.
While there are other card offers, Delta SkyMiles® Platinum American Express Card
New Launch Offer:
Earn up to 100,000 bonus miles
Earn 80,000 bonus miles after you spend $3,000 in purchases on your new Card in your first 3 months.†
Plus, earn an additional 20,000 bonus miles after your first anniversary of Card Membership.
Offer Expires 4/1/2020.†
Annual Fee $250
The benefit terms are here for this offer. Lots of perks and value that more than pay for the annual fee (Free annual companion flight, Global Entry (which also includes TSA Pre?®, First bag free, seat and trip upgrades that make flying Delta even better)
Quick summary of most meaningful changes:
Previously
Delta’s website was offering 35,000 points for Platinum.
Delta purchases were 2x
Now
80,000 with a bonus of 20,000 (see terms)
