- Alexandra Chavane de DalmassyDecember 20, 2013Come in early and enjoy the killer tunes - hellooooo 90s.

- Make sure to arrive with plenty of travel time! I always arrive at least 2 hours prior to departure because the security check points are AWFUL!
- Steve AndroulakisAugust 10, 2014One of those "Shoes off at security" airports. Like SFO, unlike LAX.

- Checking baggage at Terminal 7? Do it outside and your ready roll!
