intro


Flight routing


Welcome to the last leg of this weekend trip to Santo Domingo. We just arrived from SDQ and are connecting to BWI.


flight connection and Delta skyclub (Concourse f)


After clearing immigration, customs and security, we headed to the F concourse as the SkyClub usually has a better food selection than the rest.

Upstairs you can see the line to access the Priority Pass Lounge Option (The Lounge at ATL)… Nothing to write about this one.

We immediately found two spots at the SkyDeck, which we love. Great atmosphere while plane spotting. The nice weather in ATL helps.

Several hot options, sandwiches, charcuterie.





The lounge was busy but not full.

As our flight was departing from Concourse B, we left the SkyClub and took the plane train.

delta skyclub concourse b


We had plenty of time, so we decided to check out the B SkyClub. There was a moderate line, but we were able to use the priority line since we had confirmed First Class tickets

Delta had implemented a “To Go” option at most SkyClubs. While the selection of snacks and drinks isn’t the best, it helps when you are in a hurry and have a flight with absolutely no meal service ahead of you.

The flight


Seat 4C, just a regular domestic first class seat.

Very decent pitch, much better than the FC seats on the 739s.

Two water bottles and the flight info. The captain announced that the flight station was 1h20m.

Quick taxi and takeoff

Usual snack basket selection. Due to the length of the flight, only snacks and drinks are served. As I was driving home, I did not have an adult drink.

Quick, uneventful domestic flight. Not much to say. Crew was very attentive despite the length of the flight. On time departure and arrival. Flight went very smooth.
