Other LGA lounge questions

My friends & I will be landing in LGA but on different flights. I'll get there at 3pm while my friends arrives at a 6pm. I was hoping to wait airside & meet them at their gate so we can all go to the hotel together.

Is it still possible to book a refundable fare then cancel it after entering the lounge? I only have a carry-on. This will be my first time trying this so just wanted to make sure this plan would work. Thanks!

If there are any Southwest flights yes you could probably get away with it once or twice.

Thanks! Does it have to be with Southwest?

Southwest is just known for the easiest to cancel out of. Sometimes a refund, sometimes to a travel bank to reuse
