Over the last two years, you’ve likely seen the huge structure being built atop of Concourse B at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport. Now you can take a look inside the posh new lounge via the slideshow provided by Delta above. (Hover over image to start show)
The new 25,000-foot space boasts floor-to-ceiling windows offering panoramic views– and when you are up that high, you can get a nice view of the downtown Atlanta skyline.
Delta’s Andrea Robinson has curated a wine selection that is featured at a unique wine wall where guests can request a taste, glass or a flight of wines. A wine ambassador will help you sample just what they’re looking for. (Sounds a lot like what the American Express Centurion Lounge in San Francisco is doing- see post and photos.)
At the bar, you find the standard variety of premium and complimentary options including cocktails, Sweetwater craft beer and Starbucks coffee, freshly brewed or espresso-based drinks from a Swiss coffee maker. (Similar to what we have seen at Delta’s stellar SFO SkyClub which opened last year– see post and photos here.

Delta says that the food offerings will include locally inspired soups, salads and breads exclusive to the Atlanta B Delta Sky Club. Additional menu items include pasta and rice salads, corn and blueberry muffins, rye rolls and soup toppings, including crispy chickpeas, coconut shavings and croutons. At breakfast, there are locally baked bagels, hard boiled eggs and a yogurt bar with toppings. Fruit and snacks are offered throughout the day.
This club is second in size only to New York – JFK’s T4 facility. Located on Concourse B near Gate B18, the new space 500 seats and is expected to be the busiest Club in the entire Delta system. Delta’s two original SkyClubs on Concourse B are now closed.
What’s Next for Delta’s SkyClubs?
- In mid-October, Seattle’s second Delta Sky Club will open between Concourses A and B, offering another option for global travelers.
- The renovated Club in Raleigh-Durham is set to open in late November 2016, and will offer additional seats, more accessible power and a new food and beverage area.
- A new Club expansion is coming to Newark in late 2016, including a redesigned bar and more food options.

Was that a question?
the ladies room sinks were leaking on friday at 7am and when i returned on sunday at 7pm they were still leaking?????
Atl F is the best but the Champagne cart on friday at Term B atlanta was fun at 7 am!!!!!disappointed that the goldbergs regular great chicken salad is now pesto chicken salad not as good as the plain one!!!
Will I sound like a negative nelly if I dis it.
There are not enough people working the checkin to get into the lounge.
Too small! It is packed. It is Sunday at 2:30. Not exactly a heavy FF travel time. Can’t imagine how packed it will be during peak.
The color scheme is over used. HIE’s are using the same gray on gray wood looking floors and carpet in the guest rooms too.
The windows should have had the cross support on the upper side rather than the lower side as it blocks the view when seated. When you stand it is a great view.
I feel like I’m at a Cafeteria for some reason.
On the upside, the art work is very nice and local. The one oddity is the big Wright Brothers pic. I get we are at an airport but it doesn’t seem to fit unless there is some ATL connection I’m unaware of.
It is very noisy. It reminds me of the Aero Mexico lounge at MEX T2. One of the worst lounges ever.
I think I’ll stick with the T concourse lounge.
If time isn’t an issue…the E and F concourse lounges (and F in particular) are the best because that is where most of the international flights depart from. Slightly better food and the F club has a nice outdoor patio where you can get that real “airport roof-deck” feel. I haven’t been to the new club room yet (flying through ATL on Tuesday) so I can’t speak to it being more comfortable than E or F although E and F have some decent seating and power options. Beware, It can be a hike since most mainline Delta flights to major Delta destinations (i.e. BOS, NYC, PHL, DC, CHI, DFW, LAX, SFO and FL cities) leave from T, A and B concourses.
The best part of this? The closing of the B10 club room. It was so small and cramped—even after they remodeled it–that it wasn’t worth the stop unless you really wanted some free pretzel mix. The concourse was less crowded. The B25 lounge (which for us long-timers might remember as the old EA Ionosphere Club…I’d say “old-timers,” but I was just a dorky travel loving kid back in the 80s when we flew EA to Fla.) wasn’t nearly as bad.
i have a singe use delta sky club pass that i will use in atl. i don’t care about walking a long distance to get to my gate. should i use the pass at this new lounge? is it “the best”? is it also going to be “the most crowded”?
thanks!
