The only condition is that you are a member of Delta Air Lines, and then a lottery
Regarding the story in the United States, Delta Air Lines said to customers who used Atlanta's Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport (ATL) as a service until July 31, 2023, "Porsche 918 Spyder to pick up and drop off to the plane" It seems that a campaign called "Do it" was being carried out.
Normally, I think that it is often possible to walk through a passage called a boarding bridge from where you have checked in at the airport to the boarding gate (actual entrance) of the plane, but in some cases, the plane actually stops from this terminal building. In some cases, you may have to take a shuttle bus to where you are.
Perhaps this time, I wonder if it was sent by the 918 spider instead of the shuttle bus when boarding the type of travel that occurred before getting on the plane.
It seems that customers who can be sent to the plane by the 918 spider were decided by lottery, and the customer's boarding class is also subject to all from economy to first class.
The only condition to be included in the lottery was that it was good if it was a Medallion member, which is a mileage program of Delta Air Lines.
Next to the Porsche 918 Spyder waiting to take passengers to the plane, the person in charge put up a sign with the name of the person who won, so that it was possible to know who was elected.
The person whose name was written was guided to the Porsche 918 Spider, got into the passenger seat and was transferred to the boarding gate of the plane.
I think it would have been amazing if a service that would run the runway at full throttle with the 918 Spider was added, but I wonder if it was a slow transfer even though it was a 918 Spider ^ ^
By the way, Atlanta International Airport, which is located about 8 miles from this Porsche Experience Center, is one of the busiest airports in the world, with nearly 725,000 departures and arrivals in 2022 last year.
Delta Airlines seems to have a long relationship with Porsche, and it is said that several airports in the United States own Cayenne, Macan, Panamera, and Taikan.
It may be that we are doing a service called "Porsche pick-up to the boarding gate" like this.
