Discover the benefits of gold awards
Along with SkyMiles Gold Medallion status, there is Skyteam Elite Plus status, which also gives partner airlines significant benefits. Here are the advantages of Delta flights:
- 8 award miles per dollar USD spent
- Higher priority for free updates
- Exemption from certain service charges
- Preferred ground handling with Sky Priority (check-in, security check, boarding, baggage handling)
- Access to lounges on international flights
These last two benefits are also available from all other Skyteam airlines, so this status will significantly improve your travel experience. This is why we advise everyone to aim for Gold Status, as it brings the most benefits with an easily accessible Status Barrier.
