Not helpful for L.I. sadly. But I guess that means they should be taking people to Far Rockaway technically.

End the ride at the end of the 5 boros and start again.

I wonder how strict they will be with "boarding pass for arriving flight."

I'm arriving at LGA tomorrow morning with my Platinum. Usually stop at Centurion anyway before heading to get an Uber, so this is perfect.  Will give it a shot!

With me they have been happy to accept an email I show them with flight details but dont think they have ever looked too closely. YMMV.

Only other Amex I have now is an SPG.
Is reactivating actually a thing?

Sure. You can re-open closed cards.

I'm talking more about departure boarding pass, but I guess email can be used to fake cancelled flight, since I doubt they'll scan it.

T&C's don't say anything about that.  I'll take a picture of what they give me at the lounge in the morning tomorrow and report back. Would be great if it's any kind of car!

Annoying that, per the T&C, it only works on flights originating from LGA. It doesn't make sense to give 2 per arrival and not allow it to be used on trips TO LGA. People will end up with more credits than they can use (which may promote a market for these codes).
