LAX showers open, new bathrooms open...
Looks like no one has posted yet:
The new showers and bathrooms are open at LAX, as of yesterday according to the woman who checked me in. And you cannot buy a One-Day Pass here due to renovations FWIW.

That's fantastic news kthomas! Thanks for the info. Will be transiting through LAX, atleast 4 times next month and it will be very useful!
Quick question about the one-day pass: So, if you buy the pass online/another SC, can you use it here, or are they NOT ACCEPTING One-Day Passes at all? And what about AMEX Platinum/Cent/DL Reserve cardholders, can they still use it??

I believe your only option is a physical pass. If you physically purchase at a previous SC in your itinerary, I don't know. I noticed last night, that the SC option was not offered online for LAX in Trip Extras in my itinerary. YMMV.
Cardholder benefits still seem to apply.

As crowded as the LAX club is you'll have to pair up with someone else if you want any chance of using the showers.

How many showers are there and how large are they? Are there still toilets and sinks in the shower rooms?

I believe the club was slated to have four showers with included toilets/sinks (note that these were already complete and being used as the restrooms during the renovation. It would be great if someone could reconfirm that detail, though.
This is great news - thanks for the update!

Before the latest renovations, the LAX SC seemed to have two quite nice and stylish showers, both with ensuite toilets and sinks.

This is good to know! Thanks. Great info! However, I am not clear on one point: did you try asking if they were offering One-Day passes for sale at the club for walk-ins? Sometimes DL might not offer the passes for sale online, but you can buy them as a walk-in, in the SC. Noticed it a couple of times myself, but never really tried it.

Not quite understanding your question. Subject to possible capacity issues, any Sky Club will sell you a $50 day pass for entry based on my understanding. The reduced price day passes sold online are the same as those sold in clubs and allow access to multiple clubs on the same day. The DL AMEX $29 "access" benefit is not the same as a day pass and is not good for entry in multiple airports on the same day.

I didn't attempt to use the showers, from previous visits over the past 6 weeks, there did seem to be four of them (which were being used as bathrooms) and they were fairly large.
Now if only they have exhaust fans, and/or they will clean the vents
