A useful Terminal 5 refuge for eligible Delta and SkyTeam travelers, especially because the terminal otherwise has few broadly accessible options.
Delta's ORD club is in Terminal 5 between M11 and M14. It is the relevant lounge for Delta's ORD operation and is also used by eligible SkyTeam travelers.
Use it for a reliable meal, drink and workspace before an international flight. It is practical rather than a destination lounge, and crowding can track the Terminal 5 evening international bank.
