The Delta Sky Club at the Austin airport can be found near gate one. You can either take the stairs or the elevator. The elevator faces towards the Runway. There are four ways to gain access ranging from memberships that are as of right now like 845 and an exclusive membership which is around 550 at the time of this recording. And that's only for individual memberships. You can also fly premium or cross country or internationally and you'll gain access to it. You can also achieve elite status through the Sky Team membership. Or my personal favorite, you can have one of the credit cards that gives you access to it. And this is the list of them. The only thing is that you will have to pay 39 for end guests that are coming with you up to two. We're gonna take a look inside of the Sky Club now. If you stay tuned later we will look at the food options. I was highly impressed with the Sky Club itself. It's actually pretty big. There is an outside area that we will also see right to the right. That's where you enter in. Then you have a choice to go either right or left. Left is the food, right is where the bar is. As well as extra seating. This does wrap around that little shelf with all the wines. Was pretty cool and modern looking. We did keep going on the left hand side there is some iced tea and flavored water. If you keep going towards the back, there's I guess chip art. It's pretty cool to look at. Then we kept going towards the back on the left hand side. They're always playing cnbc, the stock channel. I guess if your business want to hang out back here. Do some calls. Feel free to. If we go this way past the sign there are the bathrooms which are really nice. We will go into them later in the video. Leave the bathroom. Keep Austin weird. Classic Austin motto. Austin is pretty weird. And then there is more seating back here. Nice that you can look onto the Runway from back here. There's always a couple of people just back here. If you want some peace and quiet away from everyone else, I do highly suggest sitting back here. Now we're gonna go back towards the front. Right in front of me is an espresso machine. A lot of options. And we'll finish the circle loop and then out those windows you will see down towards the the entryway where everyone's walking. Then this is the bar. There are some free options. I believe there's a rotating seasonal beer as well as a couple of like Michelob Ultra Coors. Now we're gonna Take a look at the food today. They were having tacos. Classic Austin. Make sure you use the tongs other, otherwise the lady's gonna yell at you, which she did to me. Yeah, just flour tortillas, some Spanish rice, beans, chicken. They, they weren't half bad. Surprisingly. I have been some other times and they did have tacos. I just wonder if they, they rotated out. But all in all they, it was pretty, pretty, pretty decent food. Can't complain too much, especially on how much it cost in the airport just to get food in general. So nice, nice little options in regards to, to the hot plate. Then there are cookies, yogurt, salad bar. There was some soup. There was also some chips and salsa. Yeah, and these are my tacos. Not too bad. And then they did have some well whiskeys up. They had three different whiskey options, gin options. And then they did have higher class drinks that you can pick from as well. Then there's Starbucks coffees that you can get, as well as some teas. Then here's the espresso machine I talked about. And then you can also get some fountain drinks for free. And this is all towards the back going towards the restrooms. And then once again, the iced tea and flavored water and that little spigot right there that has carbonated water in case you wanted some, as well as hot water coming out of there. Then I guess the best thing about it is free drinks compared to having to go anywhere else and actually have to pay for them. Now we're taking a look at the bathrooms. Each one of them has their own door go all the way down. So complete privacy for all your number two or number one needs as well as the stalls. So really nice, quiet, big and airy. So if you do have to come in here and do your business, I suggest coming to the Sky Club and taking advantage of it. Not too bad. And my favorite part was the using the force to open it. So I liked it so much I had to do it again. Make sure. Oh, gotta use the force. All right, let's take another peek around before we end this video. But yeah, no, I, I already like that Keep Austin weird sign. Yeah. Taking. Take another, another loop around the bar they did have. I'm surprised at the the amount of free options that they did have. But if you wanted Grey Goose or anything like that, of course there's going to be a charge. So if you're. You don't really mind of just having a free drink, then suggest coming in here. Then there is an also an outside patio area that you can sit in within the sky Club. There's also on the other side of that wall there is patio area for people that don't have Sky Club membership. So if you right before you get into the sky Club there are doors to go out there. So in case you wanted to see the the planes coming in or coming out or just want to have the kids run around a little bit, you more than free to do that. You don't need a Sky Club membership to access that part of the patio. There is also a bathroom out there. If you did want to go and use that one. It is a one person bathroom. So highly suggest if you don't have a Sky Club membership, you can still come up to that patio area. There is an outside bathroom as well as just a lot more. It's a lot bigger on the other side than it is in the sky club area. So once again just gonna take take a look around. Yeah, Cookies. Was a fan of the cookies today. They had Rice Krispie treats. They did have a soup that I was not a fan of. Did take some lay's chips for later as well as some cookies. So pro tip, take some, take some cookies and chips for the, for the trip. And then on the right hand side, once again, that's the entrance. You can either go right or left. Really appreciate y' all watching.
