They checked my BP last week and the two times I went last year.

Not to pass judgement, but if you're asking for ways to fake a boarding pass, maybe you should rethink your plan to go to the lounge.

I would prefer not to do the buy-then-cancel trick just to get a boarding pass. Or if anyone can recommend an airline who are okay with such customers that would be great too!
They always scan BP and swipe the AMEX card.

Same for me. Boarding pass, same day either arriving or departing, is required every time.

I know were not supposed to disparage other posters on this forum, but is this a joke?
Sometimes I wonder too.

What are peoples thoughts on the new fried chicken, going from the larger pieces to the new wings? I preferred the old recipe.

In my opinion, yes. Like you said, with a long layover, it's not a big deal. And I realize the constraint is LaGuardia itself. I assume with the re-do, they'll have more space.

Central Terminal Drive Now Closed

A heads up to everyone who flies out of C or D.... Central Terminal Drive is either now closed or will be closing shortly (a notice was put up on the LGA website last week, although it was unclear about the specific date of the closure), which includes the pedestrian walkway that was arguably the fastest and easiest way to get to those terminals from the Centurion Lounge in B. It will now be necessary to take the shuttle bus.

Centurion Lounge LGA security checkpoint monitors

Sorry if there is an existing thread on this, but I am currently at the Centurion Lounge LGA and noticed a nice new feature. By the restrooms they changed the TV to show the security cameras in front of all four checkpoints so you can see what the lines are currently looking like before you head out. It's a small thing, but very helpful.

Some good news on this front. The closure of Central Terminal drive was delayed for a few weeks and just closed last week. In the meantime, they've decided to keep the pedestrian walkway OPEN between terminals B and C.

Breakfast Time

What food is available between 5:30am - 6:30am? Website says breakfast comes out at 6:30. Have an early flight with the kids coming up and want to know if they have food out.

LGA Centurion Lounge upon arrival?

Will the LGA Centurion lounge admit a platinum card member with a same day boarding pass arriving into LGA?

Yes. Have been discussed on this thread previously.

As of when I was at LGA last week I noticed that the walkway between B and C was still open, but I assume from this post on LGA's Twitter account today that it is now officially closed:

How long does the Purple shuttle tend to take from Terminal C to B? Might trundle along soon as. I have a little layover and it's been a while since I've been to the LGA centurion lounge.

New food in here today. Entree is cod, with chicken soup, mushrooms, pea puree and vegetables. Cod is pretty bland but everything else is pretty flavorful.

I miss the fried chicken though but I guess they have to change it up now and again

Was at lounge 90 minutes before your post and noticed the cod. Didn't get a chance to try. Today no cod but there is pork lion.
