Sky Club Stairs Credentials Hack

  • Sky Club Stairs Credentials Hack

  • A travel anecdote about walking up the stairs to bypass credentials check at an airport Delta Sky Club.
  • The Hack

    • On January 17, 2015, I noticed that you seemingly never get checked for credentials if you access the Delta Sky Club via the stairs instead of the elevator.
    • I walked straight up the stairs, found a nice desk area, set up my laptop, and was offered a complementary drink without any checks.
    • I actually had legitimate Sky Club credentials, but was amused at how easily the check could be bypassed by avoiding the elevator.
These facts are as Randal recalls them, but much time has passed for most of this. If you find a factual error, please email realmerlyn@gmail.com.
