Delta & Sphere
Delta Airlines and the Las Vegas Sphere team up on Delta Sky360 Club, which isn't a single airport lounge but a network of exclusive, premium hospitality spaces in major sports and entertainment venues like Sphere, Truist Park, Crypto.com Arena, and Mercedes-Benz Stadium, offering inclusive food, drinks, and premium seating for high-end experiences and corporate entertaining, tied to Delta's brand and SkyMiles loyalty program.
Key Features:
- Exclusive Access: Entry is typically for premium ticket holders (courtside, glass seats) or VIPs, not general Delta Sky Club members.
- All-Inclusive Experience: Includes gourmet food (tapas, carving stations, classics), premium beverages (beer, wine, cocktails), and often non-alcoholic options.
- Premium Amenities: Offers private entrances, upscale dining, unique views, in-seat service, and sometimes exclusive event access.
- Location-Specific: Found at venues like Sphere (Las Vegas), Truist Park (Atlanta Braves), Crypto.com Arena (LA Lakers/Clippers), and Madison Square Garden (NY Knicks/Rangers).
- Corporate & Loyalty Perks: Serves as a prime spot for corporate entertaining and offers SkyMiles members unique access through SkyMiles Experiences.
In essence, it's Delta's way of extending its premium service to large-scale entertainment events, providing a luxury environment within the venue itself, distinct from their airport Sky Clubs.

Hermes Heir sue LVMH, others
An heir to the Hermes family fortune has filed a civil lawsuit against LVMH, its CEO Bernard Arnault, and others related to a stock battle that has been going on for over a decade. The heir believes he was wrongfully stripped of shares of Hermes stock now valued at 14 billion euros (about $16 billion in U.S. money). In October of 2010 LVMH took a 17% stake in Hermes, later it acquired about 23% of the company. In 2011 the family got together and formed a holding company to prevent a full takeover of the company. In 2013 the French government fined LVMH 8 million euros for not disclosing the initial stake they held in Hermes. By 2014 the battle ended with LVMH giving up their stake in Hermes by distributing the shares to its own shareholders. Somewhere within the mix this heir claims his shares were somehow transferred without his knowledge. Nobody seems to know what happened. Police are investing as well.
