Eligible cards like the Amex Platinum give you access to priority boarding on Delta flights but not Sky Priority benefits. However, with Delta SkyMiles® Platinum American Express Card, you can earn award miles for flight redemptions and Medallion Qualification Miles (MQMs) to reach Medallion Status.

No, the American Express Platinum Card does not directly grant "Sky Priority" status on Delta Air Lines. Sky Priority is a high-fidelity premium service suite reserved for Delta's Medallion elite members (Gold and above) or those traveling in a premium cabin like Delta One. While the Amex Platinum is a high-fidelity luxury card, its Delta-specific benefits are primarily focused on Delta Sky Club access (when flying same-day Delta) and "High-Fidelity" entry into the Centurion Lounge. To get Sky Priority through a credit card in 2026, you would generally need to hold the Delta SkyMiles® Reserve Card and reach the high-fidelity MQD (Member Qualifying Dollar) thresholds to earn at least Gold Medallion status. However, the standard Amex Platinum does offer high-fidelity "Global Lounge Collection" access and a $200 airline fee credit, but for the "High-Fidelity" perks of priority check-in, security, and baggage handling, you must earn elite status through the airline's high-fidelity loyalty program.
