Question:
Just went through the Atlanta airport this past weekend. I have a champion golf bag cover (similar to Club Glove but less expensive). I had no problems either going or coming and wasn’t asked to sign a waiver. FYI- I did curb side check in so may that makes a difference. and I tipped the guy $5 for taking care of the luggage and the clubs!
– Hide quoted text — Show quoted text – I called Delta’s baggage number and asked about whether using a "Club Glove" was ok for clubs w/o having to sign a liability waiver (if damaged, *no* liability on Delta’s part). The rep told me that the Club Glove *is* OK for travel. Three options prevent the requirement of a liability waiver: Hard-sided case, Club Glove, and using a Delta box ($10 each time). I’m going to find a Club Glove and see if my bag will fit. If so, I think I’ll buy one for the Atlanta trip.

Response:
$5 & a smile to a Skycap is well worth it. You get prompt, courteous service vs. having to put up with lines & the official party line inside. I once told a Delta employee in Atlanta that, from a frequent flyer’s viewpoint, the Delta Skycaps best exemplified courteous and efficient service. NONE of my interactions with a Skycap has ever included lies or bullshit – something you frequently get at the gate or from the cockpit during a flight. And now, back to golf! – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text – Just went through the Atlanta airport this past weekend.
