    Take/do your drugs before going through security or take a helicopter to the airport and avoid check-in & security lines

    Security at the new Delta T4 can be a nightmare, even in the priority line. Consider enrolling in Precheck.

    Keep your metal items on during security check if you're feeling extra frisky and haven't gotten some in a while.

    Heads up on taxis. Yellow Cabs can be hard to find outside the Delta terminal... The black cabs will say they take cards but then nag you for cash.

    When flying Delta check in at Terminal 3. It connects easily to terminal 2 as well but has better food options and shorter lines.

    For a good time.. hover over the choppy, vast, dark, ocean at 1700 feet for several minutes. Make sure your pilot holds that. It’s fun. This airport is a fun landing... always.

    Flying Delta / Terminal 4? Hope you got your walkin' shoes on because your gate is always 100 miles away. Treat yourself to the Shake Shack at Gate B34 after your trek.

    Don't trust the signs in Terminal 3 and be sure you know where you're going of your gate starts with B.

    If you fly Delta, try taking the elevator to baggage claim. It's like a maze through the stinky underbelly of the terminal. I think you have to wall through the tsa locker room.

    TERMINAL 8 — The MasterCard Lounge has free wifi, charging stations. All you have to do is show any MasterCard. They don't even swipe it, ask for any personal info, nothing. Wifi is slow, but whatevs.
