Putting finishing touches on Delta’s new Sky Club at SFO which opens Friday at 6 a.m.

Delta’s long awaited new Sky Club at San Francisco International Airport opens Friday morning, August 28, at 6 am, but TravelSkills got an exclusive first look at the big, bright new space today.

UPDATE! Here’s our full report & slideshow about the new SkyClub at SFO

All we can say right now is bring your sunglasses and get ready for some of the best runways views ever through a wall of windows that will take your breath away. 

We were there at lunchtime, and were lucky to be able to sample some of the outstanding, Vietnamese-tinged food for purchase at the club.

Here are a few teaser shots. Stay tuned for our full report in coming days… (or check my Twitter feed from the opening event on Friday- and follow me!)

    You can buy a pass. If you look on certain popular Web sites, they are far cheaper than face value (hint… Delta frowns on this practice, but does nothing to stop it).

    What a bummer. I am flying from SFO to Salt Lake City tomorrow on Delta in first class, but if you’re not a club member then Sky Club access is only open to first-class passengers on transcontinental flights. Nice pictures, though. I’ll review them again tomorrow at the gate and contemplate the beauty and fun that must be occurring only a short distance away.
