Soooo, her AX (annual fee) card no longer gets her and here fellow DL retirees into the Sky Clubs.
Many retirees ( all airlines) keep the AX card so they can enjoy the lounges as they travel the world.
Did DL happen to mention why they changed their policy???????

They can enter with a paid ticket.
The company said it is due to overcrowding.
When I was at JFK last week, the line was way out the door to enter the club.
I used the Air India club at JFK which was surprisingly nice.

"Overcrowding", Well I have my own theory, I attribute crowded lounges to TSA telling everyone to be at the airport 2/3 hours before flights and "mobile check-in". BTW, I also maintain that "mobile check-in" has changed non-revving.
CHECK-IN, now there's an airline term which meaning has changed.
CHECK-IN used to mean I'm actually at the the airport ready to roll.
CHECK-IN today has a much broader meaning - anything from
A. I'm on the beach now, but I fully intend to be on that flight tomorrow (24 hours)
B. I'm stuck in traffic but I think I can make it within the next hour or so (90 minutes)
C. I just cleared screening and I'm running. (45 minutes)

Guess which one had these non-revs heading for the lounge?
