Keep in mind that Sky Priority does not include lounge access to the Delta Sky Club, but some of the elite members and premium class passengers listed above do get Sky Club access.

No, Sky Priority does not automatically grant Delta Sky Club access. While the "Sky Priority" label on your boarding pass—earned through Gold, Platinum, or Diamond Medallion status or by flying in a premium cabin—gives you faster check-in, security, and boarding, it is separate from lounge privileges. As of 2026, Delta has significantly tightened its entry rules. To enter a Sky Club, you generally need to be flying in Delta One (international or select transcontinental), hold a specific high-end American Express card (like the Delta Reserve or Amex Platinum, subject to new annual visit caps), or have a separate Sky Club membership. If you are a Gold, Platinum, or Diamond Medallion member traveling internationally, you may gain access, but only if you are ticketed in at least Delta Premium Select or Delta One. Simply having "Sky Priority" status while flying in standard Main Cabin or Comfort+ on a domestic flight will not get you through the lounge doors.
