Delta SkyMiles Experiences

Curated experiences organized into rotating collections:

• Music & Film - concerts, premieres, and entertainment access
• Culinary - chef dinners, kitchen tours, prix-fixe tastings with wine pairings
• Sports - games, events, and athlete-adjacent access
• Wellness & Adventure - multi-night retreats and active escapes
• Fashion, Art & Design - private styling appointments, shopping credits, design events
• Card Member Collection - experiences reserved for eligible Delta SkyMiles American Express Card Members

Many are packaged with extras like round-trip flights, hotel stays, and a guest spot, so you're often redeeming for a full trip, not just a single ticket.

Two ways to redeem with SkyMiles:

• Redeem Now - buy select experiences outright for a fixed miles price, first come first served.
• Bid - place a miles bid (in 1,000-mile increments) on an auction-style experience. Highest bid when the auction closes wins. If you're outbid or don't win, your miles are returned to your account. If you win, Delta's team reaches out to coordinate the details for you and your guests.

There's no points-or-cash toggle here - it's a SkyMiles redemption platform. New experiences are added on Tuesdays, every two weeks.

Open to any Delta SkyMiles Member who is 18 or older and resides in the 50 US states or DC. You'll need to be logged into your SkyMiles account to bid or redeem. No elite status or co-brand card is required for the general collections - your SkyMiles balance is the only gate. The exception is the Card Member Collection, which is reserved for eligible Basic Delta SkyMiles American Express Card Members (additional/authorized card members don't qualify).

Short on points? American Express Membership Rewards transfers to Delta SkyMiles at 1 to 1, so cardholders can top up their Delta SkyMiles balance before bidding or buying. Transfers are final, so only move points you would be happy holding as Delta SkyMiles regardless of whether you win.

Recently featured (inventory rotates, so treat these as a flavor sample, not a standing menu): a 7-night Los Cabos vacation with Exclusive Resorts (bidding had climbed past 400,000 miles); riding the Delta boat at WorldPride Amsterdam with a hotel stay and round-trip flights; dinner and a kitchen tour at The French Laundry in Yountville, CA; a 6-night all-inclusive wellness retreat at The Ranch Malibu; an intimate chef's dinner at MIDA in Boston with James Beard winner Douglass Williams; and a private styling appointment with a $1,500 credit at Revolve & FWRD in LA.

All wins and Redeem Now purchases are final - no mileage refunds, and resale is prohibited. The big catch: bids are binding, so only bid an amount of miles you're genuinely willing to part with. Miles for losing or outbid auctions are returned automatically. You must be 18+ and live in the 50 states or DC to participate. Browse and filter inventory by category, location, and miles range at skymilesexperiences.com; new drops land every other Tuesday and many experiences are explicitly limited availability.

If you've got a stash of SkyMiles and have already covered your flight redemptions, this is a legitimately fun way to spend them on access you genuinely can't buy off the shelf. Just go in clear-eyed: bids are binding and there's no cash-out, so it's a "spend miles I'd otherwise sit on" play, not a value-maximizing one.
