Bodycam Video Shows Police Arrest Over Lounge Access at Delta Sky Club in Palm Beach

Travel sites posted the July 5 police footage, spotlighting Delta’s rule that entry requires proof of eligibility.

Overview

  • The confrontation occurred on July 5 at Palm Beach International Airport after staff said the man lacked the required credentials to remain in the Delta Sky Club.
  • Body-worn camera video now published online shows officers telling him to leave immediately or be arrested for trespassing.
  • The man became hostile, telling an officer, “Get away from me, you’re disgusting,” before he was handcuffed when he continued to stall.
  • He was wheeled from the lounge in custody and asserted after being cuffed that he had chosen to leave.
  • Reports do not identify the traveler or the legal outcome and underscore that Delta Sky Club entry requires eligible membership and a same-day Delta or SkyTeam boarding pass.
