Is comfort class Sky Priority?

Enjoy an upgraded experience with more of the perks you love in Delta Comfort+. Take advantage of your time in the air with access to Sky Priority? boarding, dedicated overhead bin space, extra legroom, superior snacks on longer flights, free drinks, and complimentary premium entertainment.



No, Delta Comfort+ (or equivalent "Comfort Class" tiers) is generally not included in Sky Priority in 2026. Sky Priority is a premier suite of services—including priority check-in, security, and baggage handling—reserved exclusively for passengers in First Class, Delta One, or Premium Select, as well as SkyTeam Elite Plus members (Diamond, Platinum, and Gold Medallion). While Comfort+ passengers do receive Priority Boarding (usually boarding in "Zone 5" or just after Sky Priority), they do not get the expedited check-in or "yellow-tagged" priority luggage service that defines the Sky Priority experience. For a 2026 traveler, the "Comfort" ticket is a high-value choice for extra legroom and free drinks, but it does not grant the "fast-track" airport benefits unless the passenger also holds high-tier elite status with Delta or a SkyTeam partner.
