    A patio bar would be great in this nice outdoor waiting area!

    Good job with the remodeling, except for the restrooms. I thought this country finally got the memo that 1/2" gaps in stall doors are NOT cool.The restrooms in the new TBIT at LAX are much more modern

    Nice little airport. Super easy in/out. JetBlue is the only airline I fly! They walk you on the tarmac to your plane. It has been years since i have done that, how cool.

    If you have the choice of LGB or LAX, make your life easier and go with LGB! .. Awesome remodeling, good restaurants, fast and easy from drop off to flight!

    Nice little airport with super fast security (holidays are the exception but still faster than LAX); the long beach-based JetBlue crew are also very nice. :)

    New Security checkpoint has been expanded and modernized. Checking in made faster for what I always considered a hassle free airport.

    It is worth the extra money to fly in/out of LGB. Free wifi. Some seats have electrical outlets underneath.

    Hands down my favorite airport in the US. Love walking the tarmac to the plane... feels oh so presidential. The major renovations were tastefully done.

    Big improvements at this little airport. Two restaurants, coffee shop, and CNBC news store post security.

    Cheaper flights than LAX and faster to get through everything. Rentals cars are right here so you save tons of time on your trip. My top choice now. Even if it is run down and ghetto with portables.

    From LGB you can go anywhere in Metro LA using public transport. We went to Staples Center for $1.85 each! Sure beats a $75 taxi ride.

    I love JetBlue, the people are awesome the service is awesome and this airport even during construction is awesome.

    Haven't made up my mind if LGB only gets you to your destination or is a destination in and of itself. 👍

    Invest in TSA Pre ✅ for $85. You'll speed through the security line in five minutes, get to leave your shoes on and your laptop in your bag.

    new terminal by the gates is quite the charmer. sushi bar and wine bar inside is absolutely not bad. coffee bar next door is meh, but, overall, the terminal is worthy of hanging out. much improved!

    I love this airport. It's little and the security is friendly. Come here instead of LAX if at all possible.

    A fun and quick alternative to LAX or SNA. However, tickets are typically a little pricier here.

    Show up early and people watch. Security is quick, and there are two decent restaurants inside the secure area.

    The place is redone and looks beautiful. Still short lines and food options are a bit better. Very clean

    It's got to be the cutest airport I've ever flown from. Quite a bit of it open to the sky.

    If you want to call Uber or Lyft, walk out of the terminal and walk to the parking lot at the intersection of Wardlow and N Lakewood.

    Definitely better than the chaos of LAX, but I'm sure it'll be a nightmare if it's raining (that open courtyard is just asking for trouble).

    Surprisingly small airport, feels luxurious. The baggage claim is outside!!! It's cheaper to fly here than to LAX! Who knew!

    Officially one of my favorite airports. Security is friendly and fast, and it has that 1965 vibe to it.

    Great fast airport. So easy compared to other LA area airports. Worth a little drive

    McKennas has amazing food but slow service. If you're hungry ask for it to go so you don't miss your flight!
