Delta Sky Club
★3.9(136 reviews)RDU
RDU's SkyTeam lounge — a renovated Sky Club across from Gate C3 for Delta and SkyTeam flyers.
The Delta Sky Club at Raleigh-Durham International is the airport's SkyTeam lounge, set airside on the second level of Terminal 2 across from Gate C3. Delta renovated and expanded the club in late 2016, and it serves SkyTeam Elite Plus members along with Delta business- and first-class passengers. The lounge follows the familiar Sky Club template: a complimentary cold buffet with snacks, a bar pouring house wine, beer and liquor, and a spread of soft drinks. Practical touches include a business center, free Wi-Fi, flight-monitor screens, a TV room and newspapers and magazines, with wheelchair access and boarding announcements covered. Operating hours run early to evening — roughly 04:00 to the back end of the day — so it's a comfortable spot for morning and daytime Delta departures rather than late-night ones.
Crowding · busy at morning peak
A solid pre-flight work stop with free Wi-Fi, a dedicated business center and quieter corners away from the buffet. Fine for email, calls and laptop work, though it's an airline club rather than a dedicated business suite.
A complimentary cold buffet with snacks anchors the food offering, alongside a full bar serving house wine, beer and liquor plus a range of soft drinks. It's a self-service spread in the standard Sky Club style, geared to grabbing a plate and a drink before a Delta departure rather than a sit-down meal.
