Update: Delta Sky Priority Signage Appearing at airports (Austin)

In follow up to previous blog -Delta News: New "Sky Priority" Benefits for High-Revenue Elites to be Announced Spring 2010. While traveling on business to Austin at the end of March, I noticed the new Sky Priority signage at the boarding area. This will be coming to an airport near you. A few of my thoughts...

• No mention of Silver or Elite members to utilize the new boarding process outside of General Boarding
• I am beginning to think that Diamond is the old Platinum.
• The Priority Lane is yet again, away from the agent. This results in the frequent travelers having to cross into the general line, all too often the Gate Agent seems disgruntled. I have to give a Kudos to United, there GS/1k/First - Red Carpet was an incredible addition to their recognition process. Entering the area, agent there to scan and to board without having to cut into the crowd waiting to board.

Will be interesting to see what else comes of this, set to launch later this month.
