All airports have 2 sections:
1. Landside area, defined as pre-security, typically where the airline counter are situated
2. Airside = inside security, where the gates are
So MI, I think what you are saying is that I have to reclaim baggage and exit the secure area of the airport...then go to the counter to check bags then reclear security. That suxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.
Jason, I have Global Entry and am a Delta Platinum, so I shouldn't need a porter.
Anyone know if DL has a Medallion lane at the STT counter? Normally I don't check bags so it's a rare one for me.
I am Delta Platinum, million Miler (a few times), and have Global entry. The Delta people in STT don't care. If there's a line to drop a bag, you will wait. A porter helps skip that and will also walk past the line of people on the "landside" area waiting to get into the Customs area. I usually watch the traffic flow for a few minutes and decide if I think I need help
