I wish there was a lounge in T1 
edit: I can't remember, but would I be able to get off my flight in TBIT and walk straight to a lounge in there?
I get off a 16h flight, with a 4h lay-over leaving T1. A shower is all I'll be looking for!

However, you can access any terminal with a boarding pass for a flight departing from LAX the same day.

May looks like the end of the AC Lounge at T2. What other lounge changes are coming?

- The Air Canada Maple Leaf lounge will close, but AC is planning on opening a new location.
- The Loft by Virgin America will close, which was bound to happen with the merger anyway
- American will take over the Delta Sky Club in T5 and convert it into a third Admirals Club
- Delta will build a brand new club in T2-T3 (possibly a "showcase" club like SEA/SFO)
I'll confirm the finer details with the airlines very soon.

If you are arriving on an international flight, unless you are coming from an airport with a US pre-clearance facility, you must first clear immigrations and customs and go through TSA security before accessing the lounges.
However, you can access any terminal with a boarding pass for a flight departing from LAX the same day.

I might have to use the Southwest shuttle and go from T1 after checking in, to TBIT and grabbing a shower in a lounge there, then head back to T1 on the shuttle.

So...pretty much PP members/users are screwed lounge wise at LAX after the move. At least before, you had access to at least one PP lounge on each side of the airport, but after the move, all the PP lounges are going to be on the south side of the airport, with no ability to get to them air side if you are no the north side of the airport.

Priority Pass Lounge acessability from T7
Will be checking in at United T7, about 2 hours before flight. Looks like closest club for PP holders is run by Alaska Airlines in T6. There are other eligible clubs airside in the international terminal (TBIT). Time wise how far are they walking from T7?

Note that the AS lounge has recently had frequent "overcrowding - PP not accepted" sign out, and that the KE lounge (TBIT) has limited PP hours posted on the website, although reports are that the hours aren't always enforced. Given that it is about a 40 minute RT trek, just a head's up.

Tried the lounges today with Priority Pass

The AS lounge in T6 had a sign out saying that PP was not being accepted! Of course it's the closest "PP" lounge to United's T7, less than 10 minutes away, but what good is it if it turns away PP card holders!
The KOA lounge had self service liquors, wines, sandwiches, etc.

From United (T7) after security (12:15pm Sunday) to the Korean Airlines lounge in the TBIT it took me about 20 minutes, walking briskly. Signs were easy to follow going there. I missed a turn in one of the tunnels on the way back to United Gate 70B, so it took 30 minutes.

Once through security, I assume you don't have to pass security again going to the Korean lounge?

I heard in the MLL thread that MLL is not contracting with PP after the move. So the PP access is further getting reduced at LAX. Not sure what options are available for PP to up their game at this point because right now their lounge choices are looking bad for such a major airport like LAX. Wonder if there is room for them to open a Club in one of the Delta terminals.

Priority Pass LAX
Looks like we are "screwed". We have an Aer Lingus flight in Terminal 2 and priority pass was linked to the Air Canada lounge in Terminal 2. With the move, I presume we will not have access to a lounge in Terminal 2....
