    On a rainy day, grab a slice at Luigi's and watch luggage trucks make the hairpin turn from concourse A to B. Just watched one drift a frailer and another sling bags all over the tarmac!

    Baggage claim takes forever here. Prices for bottled water are also outright thievery!

    Lame "free" wifi which requires you to download a sponsor app in order to use.

    Security does NOT open until 4:30-5am. However if your not here by 6-7am you may not find parking.

    Ask for the full body search, security has soft hands.

    Do not purchase the inflight wi-fi from Southwest. Barely connected during my four hour flight plus it doesn't work in the airport during layovers. Waste of $5.

    Never go to the far right when going through security. It may seem like a good idea but it takes much longer than going straight.

    Potbelly Sandwich is a must. Also, Gold Coast Dogs is decent but specializes in grilled dogs as opposed to the traditional steamed variety which are available upon request. Safe travels!

    Don't eat at millers. Horrific seating. No room for purse let alone bags. Floors filthy nasty. World famous ribs. Meh. I'm not a negative person just trying to save others from our experience.

    This tip is for any airport: Fly Southwest. Also, late flights are cheaper and feature less screaming children. I can't find any outlets to charge my laptop.

    So is the shitty condescending attitude from the assholes working the detectors at tsa pre checkin at Midway at 430am supposed to be part the security theater here? Sorry you hate your jobs, cowards.

    watch people in the Expert Traveler line. I've never seen a group of people pre untie their shoes before. Performance guilt?
