Given a 30 day New York Times Trial card at LGA this afternoon. Weren't more than 8 people in the lounge during my stay.

Definitely possible and quite a good idea. Lounge is landside in Central Terminal between piers B and C, so if you're coming in on US or DL you would need to transfer terminals.

Is the amenity just because they are new, or will they always give it away?
The second time different dragons seemed to know that I had already visited, so I think first time users are highlighted on the screen when your card is swiped. New visitors are told where stuff is located and that everything is free. BTW, I didn't see and tip jars and didn't tip at all, including bartenders for pouring me a glass of wine. Some people got table service, but I went to get food and drinks myself. I didn't notice anyone tipping but what are other people doing? |

They're gone, but the first time I visited the Centurion lounge, the dragon gave me a card good for a free four week internet subscription to the NYT.

First trip to the lounge today. Will visit tomorrow and the next day too. Part of a mileage run. Very good lounge. Missed the free massage that DFW has, but otherwise similar. Food was great. I especially liked the strawberry shortcake with clotted cream.

Centurion Lounge LGA [Opened, 12 August 2014]
If anyone is interested I took a boatload of pics and put them up on loungebuddy.... I'd do it here but doesn't appear the app allows it, at least not easily.
|
Hit the lounge yesterday for both brekky and lunch. The French Toast was pretty epic. And they gave me that free NYT card. Will hit it again later today when my mileage run is over.
|
I'm here again, this time at a truly off peak time (Saturday afternoon). There are roughly 5-10 people here. As a comparison, I've never seen the LGA Admirals Club so empty. Hopefully the overcrowding fears due to the small size of the lounge will not bear fruit.
|
I seriously can't believe it closes at 8. 8. I feel like I'm a kid with curfew.

Centurion Lounge LGA [Opened, 12 August 2014]
Currently at the lounge. Sunday afternoon about 30 ppl. Food puts other US airline lounges to shame. No reason to go to AA/UA/AC lounges.
|
In here again, 3rd time in a week! Can't emphasize again how good the French Toast is with the syrup and the fruit. Was able to hit both brekky and lunch menus again today.
|
I know this is an overused term but this place really has been a game-changer for me in LaGuardia. I so hated that airport! Now I try to arrive early and damn it for sure I am going to end up missing a flight one day because I am too happy sitting around in this lounge :)
For any frequent central terminal LGA flyer I'd say this place makes getting the Amex platinum worthwhile. |
Just a data point. It took about 15 minutes brisk walking to get from lounge to US airways departure gate with a carry-on.
