First time Southwest flyer and LAX/ LAS airport

Hi All

Being London-based and hence Oneworld loyalist I will have my first Southwest flight next week as a) recently AA was too unfriendly to me and b) flight timings are better plus c) the Avgeek in me always wanted to try Southwest anyway.

Given that - please allow a few questions:

- how likely will I be to get a decent seat (window) with earlybird out of LAX on Sat morning and back Sat evening (last flight from LAS)?
- I think I have seen somewhere that it is rather easy to access the Centurion lounge at LAS and to come back to the Southwest gates (D gates)? Which terminal would be the best to pass security with TSA Pre to visit the lounge first and then to head to D gates? I will have plenty of time, assuming I won't get stuck somewhere on the strip after my meeting
- is there any lounge at the LAX terminal I can visit with Priority pass or my AMEX?

Many thanks for your replies
Daniel
