Shermick PetersNovember 11, 2011This is a small airport compared to LAX...very easy to get thru...weird boarding plane on the tarmack tho!!!
The new terminal is gorgeous, and much easier to get to than LAX.
This might be the coolest and easiest airport i have ever been to.
Arlynn MuckeyMarch 1, 2013I never fly out of any other airport but here. Just renovated - love the place!
Sarah OliverJanuary 30, 2013The new airport is gorgeous. Wonderful lighting from the windows, really delicious food and now you can watch planes take off and land. Definitely a turn around from the old shacks.
No coffee shops except inside/past security. Just vending machine coffee. BYO!
So much beter than LAX. If you can flight to LGB. Do yourself a favor and make it happen.
Security line is so much faster! New upgrades make the place look great.
Bahjat ShariffSeptember 27, 2011Super quick security line. Quick curb to gate. Record time. Not a lot of food choices, but so well worth it.
Great airport only 5 airlines jet blue is awesome, cheapest flight from sac to long beach
Jason LederfineNovember 13, 2011I'll pay more to fly in and out of here. If renting a car priceline can get you one for 1/3 the price. From check in to past security was less then 10 minutes. Long walk from plane to baggage claim.
Sit at the picnic tables outside the airport...they're nice and it doesn't feel like you're being cow herded!
Make sure the person your picking up is there. The police will tell you move if you try to park.
James Audun MoeMarch 12, 2013If you are flying Alaska, choose a different airport. Skywest contracts their flights here and Skywest is delay-ridden.
The newly constructed Terminal is great, a huge improvement!!!
Steve BJuly 1, 2012Portable building for a terminal and a separate portable for a bar. This rocks!!!!
Shannon FullerMay 29, 2012All the food is before security except a tiny kiosk with snacks and water/soda.
Tony RonzoMay 1, 2011Smallest airport I've seen. I found a nice little wifi nook next to the cooler at gate 2... It took a little while for it to solidify the connection though...
Eric LeistJanuary 13, 2012DID YOU KNOW? In 2012, this airport was voted most likely to be mistaken for a campground.
From LGB to Disneyland, it's a $52 cab ride. (Paradise Pier Hotel)
Jeff SchonerAugust 9, 2011Overheard from a TSA agent once while going through security: "Long Beach (airport) is the shiznit!"
Be sure to eat prior to arriving or bring food with you, the food choices are limited.
Love this airport...never takes more than 20 min to get thru security. Small and nice.- Robert PolsonSeptember 27, 2014Jet blue cancelled my flight without notifying me....not the best surprise but they already put me on next flight with upgraded seat
Queen 👑 JSeptember 25, 2014Its been a minute and they have revamped this joint. Im impressed with the terminals. Updated and fancym
Wesley DavenportNovember 3, 2011This airport makes me feel like in the movie Catch Me If You Can or the show Pan Am. Swanky and old school.

"Don't know the mans name, but he was the best TSA personnel I've EVER encountered! He was personable, effective and made what has been on many of my flights a insulting experience. Props to this guy!"
Sam Hendrick 
"Go down the very end of the walk way. Baggage claim 1 is separate from baggage claim 2 & 3."
