previously announced, SkyTeam is rolling out
Sky Priority, a series of distinctively-branded priority airport
services offered to SkyTeam Elite Plus members, as well as First and

Beginning this month, the Sky Priority suite of services
that qualifying Delta customers currently enjoy will expand to other
SkyTeam airline partners, including KLM, Air France, Alitalia, China
Airlines and Korean Air, along with 800 airports over the next
several months. By early 2013, these services will be available at
more than 1,000 airports around the globe.
Qualifying customers are encouraged to look for Sky
Priority signs that will start to appear at select SkyTeam airports
to take advantage of the following priority services to help speed
them through the airport, and then around the world:
-
Check-in
-
Baggage drop-off, handling and delivery
-
Security lines (where available)
-
Boarding
-
Service at airport ticket offices and transfer desks
