I was told the same thing when traveling to LAX end of May. Even with two Plat cards, said only one allowed.

Based on the reports that a cancelled (but not expired) Plat card can only get one person into a Delta lounge, I assume the same holds true of an active card, that it can only get one person in? Correct?

I have amex platinum (priority pass) what are the nicest lounges I can get into in JFK, Newark and LAX?

Also do I need to be travelling the day I want to visit lounge or will they let me in even without boarding pass?

Do I need to be flying that day(boarding pass) to get into lounges or is my amex card/priority pass enough?

Can one still get lounge access with an expired (2/2015) and inactive AMEX Platinum? Any lounges in EWR or TAM work? Thanks.
