Delta has officially announced changes to the SkyMiles program.
- Starting January 1, 2024 all members will earn status through MQDs only. There will no longer be Medallion Qualifying Miles (MQMs) or Medallion Qualifying Segments (MQSs). Rollovers won’t be lost but can be converted to MQDs or miles.
- Delta SkyMiles Reserve and Delta Reserve Business American Express Card Members will receive 10 Club visits per Medallion Year starting Feb. 1, 2025. Unlimited access after spending $75,000 in a calendar year for that calendar year and the following calendar year.
- Delta SkyMiles Platinum and Delta Platinum Business American Express Cards will no longer provide Club Access
- Effective January 1, 2024, eligible Card Members with Basic Economy (E) fare tickets (or similar “Light” or “basic” tickets issued by a Delta partner) will not have access to the Delta Sky Club.
We don’t have full details regarding the changes to how MQDs are earned or how rollovers will convert but I’d expect that soon. Not sure how much these changes will actually help with overcrowding but not surprised to see limits on lounge visits.
