    Cat Cora's Kitchen has great Mediterranean food (even for an airport) and people watching scene - worth the trip if you have a layover

    Compared to others, it doesn't have enough signs to keep you on track. For instance, when you disembark the plane, & you're looking for baggage claim, there's no sign to help you turn left or right

    Free wifi and if you're Canadian (without a visa), you can skip right to the express lineup and save you a huge wait!

    When you come to the domed intersections between terminals, look up & say something - it's an #echo chamber!

    New game: Count the TSA Agents - count the number of agents vs the number that are doing NOTHING. You may know this game as "Tax Dollars at Work"

    When dropping someone, park at the day off site garages for $4 instead of the airport garage. It saves money and the aggravation of driving in airport traffic.

    Passenger-laden carts careen through each terminal with speeds normally reserved for jets. Listen for the loud, if half-hearted warning shouts by cart drivers to prevent certain doom while ambling by.

    In Emirates a backpack with laptop is not considered a laptop bag but a cabin luggage. It would be better to carry just one bag. Sometimes you get lucky and they check in your 2nd cabin luggage.

    Great service and duty free shops. You can move up and down to other terminals taking "airport shuttle" easily.

    Free wifi. Shuttle bus to all major car rent companies takes 3 mins. But it's very cold inside because of AC.

    If departing out of concourse C and running late, go through the E concourse instead. There is almost never a wait and has saved me today and other days. Once through security take tram or walk to C.

    If you're stuck here all night prepare. No wifi. The only market opens runs out of food. All the seats have bars so you can't lie down and they have country music blasting all night long.

    Best way to check-in for B Gates is to go through Security at the A Terminal, Security line is shorter, you can grab a drink at Starbucks after Security, & then take Inter-Terminal Train to B Gates.

    Don't show up late, you won't make it through the TSA line. Get there early and grab something to eat at Papadeaux's Seafood.

    Business traveler power move: if you're flying United Express and qualify for TSA precheck, use terminal C and take train over to B to save time. Bonus: better food choices in C than in B.

    Always allocate an extra 30 minutes. If you think you are running to close, use the valet parking once you are in the parking area.

    before flying out if I have a morning flight (and enough time), I always have biscuits and gravy with fried chicken at popeyes. Great way to say goodbye to the south!

    The KLM lounge in Terminal D is the only one accessible for Priority Pass Select members. Worth the trip over on a layover.

    The quickest way between terminals is the train, but if you're not in a rush, it's a surprisingly quick and easy airport to navigate on foot.

    If you're stuck here for a couple of hours, go find Pappadeaux Seafood restaurant. It's a real restaurant with excellent food, a major step above "Chili's to Go".

    If you are stucked in Terminal E for a while, take the train to Terminal C for more shopping facilities

    If you're on continental, And check in at terminal C, but your gate is in E, don't walk from C security, take the escalator next to it for the shortcut to E, open from 5a til 11a

    NO where to charge electronics. The few charging stations had lines of people waiting to charge their phones. No wall outlets because they think the few charging stations are enough?! Ridiculous!

    All of the people who's items were opened up and inspected were picked out and of South Asian decent. Items were thrown out of suitcases and we had to repackage them.

    The airport is huge, unnecesary custom line when connecting like in all US airports, united liubge is better than in other locations.

    ATTENTION ALL VISITORS: When in terminal E, you must eat at Pappasitos. Anything else is a blatant insult to this city of delicious food.

    I agree with previous tips. Catching a plane T gate 84c is worth changing your itinerary. I think it must be a mile or so from c terminal
