Nope.
Note that the ticket doesn't matter, but the metal of the place is what matters. 
UA metal=no.
CO metal=yes.

Looks like you can use the United Club with the PP card:

Quote
Airport: los angeles (CA) - International (LAX), Terminal 6
Lounge: UNITED CLUB

Location: Airside - across from Gate 62. Passengers departing from Terminal 5 can also access the Lounge via the tunnel that connects the two terminals.

Opening Hours: 05:00 - 00:45 daily. Hours are subject to change.

Which lounge, if any, can I get in to at JFK or TLV when flying on Delta with a cancelled Priority Pass or Amex Plat?

Thanks

I booked tickets to Israel JFK-LHR-TLV for the cheap price. Thanks Dan!!!!

My wife, my baby, and myself are flying, and my Brother in law and Sister in law will be on that flight too.

If my wife has a cancelled Amex Plat, could we all use the lounge? or just our family? BIL has a business platinum, active, will that cover all of us?

Which lounge could I get access to in JFK? will it work in TLV?

None.

Actually, on second thought, technically you'd be able to access a US Airways lounge, but I'm not sure if they're in the same terminal.

The issue is because the card is canceled, or even with an active card no lounge in jfkaccepts it?

Not AFAIK. You might be able to try a lounge in TLV with the PP, but not sure at all.

Plat lounge benefit page is showing Airspace lounge(s), is that something new?

There's currently only one in BWI, but Airspace says they'll be adding more:

Airspace is growing to many dozens of lounges around the globe and we'll be announcing what's next shortly.

Dozens, eh?
