Very small airport but awesome to deal with compared to LAX. Only an hour flight to Oakland. jetBlue is amazing!
Josh KOctober 20, 2010when picking someone up, dont park in the short term but instead turn right into the private area just before the round about. the people don't check.
There is not better airport in the country. Just wish there were more direct flights.
Stephen L HarlowApril 29, 2010The Legends of Aviation restaurant / bar in the Long Beach Airport is a great place to go, even if you're not flying.
New terminal under construction. Long term parking deck is first on approach from road...a
Hanae RogersJuly 28, 2010For those of u picking up from the airport...there is a waiting area parking lot on corner of lakewood & wardlow..across from the airport
Much easier to fly in and out of LA from here. TSA checkpoint was a breeze
The food options are pretty good for such a small airport.
Tony CicolaDecember 16, 2011Yes it's quick to pass security n cheaper to fly BUT make sure to eat - don't expect a Starbucks - theres a cafe but expensive for little choices. Wouldn't want to spend an hour here waiting!
Snallish airport for easy on and off. No frills but then again do you really want a frilly airport?
Relax NApril 18, 2013Security a bit slow and backed up so give yourself extra time...even through priority lane.
There's a self checkin kiosk near the entrance to the security line that is almost never used.
Maybs MApril 26, 2011If you're flying JetBlue, there are check-in kiosks past the ticketing area toward the security line. Skip the wait!
Once you get out of security, go right if you're flying JetBlue and left if you're flying anything else.
the terminal has brought slower and longer security lines. Allow more time.
Nenad MirkovicApril 12, 2013...such a cool little airport,bit mens restroom sucks,like stuck in early '50 es...
Jeremy PJuly 3, 2012Go LAX. Security in an airport the size of a shed in CA would seem easy. Wrong. Security/airport personnel were not on the same page in terms of policies which would have allowed an efficient process
Rick DionneJune 30, 2014Because their TV's aren't working they're giving every customer a $15 voucher for future flights
Elena HAugust 2, 2012If you're in the Jet Blue terminal, I hope you weren't planning to grab a meal, because there's no food here
Small airport but great for Jet Blue flights.... Subtle taste of Cali.
Quickest airport in the West! Love flying out of here.
JJ GJune 10, 2009If you need to wait for someone, I recommend a quick stop into "The Pilot Shop". It beats driving around in circles, and you can park for free.
Peter ImbresJune 8, 2014They should rename this place Chuck Norris Airport because all it does is kick ass.
Geraldine CApril 4, 2013This airport has a curfew. No planes take off before 0700. So if you have a flight at 0645... expect to wait.
Not sure how you can call a giant portable and airport but that's apparently what passes for one in Long Beach
Hotwire car rental cheaper than alternatives for 4/6-8. (Generally Budget with Costco discount is cheapest direct.)
Chris PendletonJune 15, 2010The wifi sux in the airport. Be prepared to have dropped connections throughout your stay. Oh, and there are 2 outlets by security for gates 21-24.
Follow @southbyfreenoms if you're going to SXSW! Updates on free food and drinks!
DyShaun MuhammadMarch 25, 2011The airport bar is actually very cool. Bright and good view of the planes and runway.
Jade Bailey-AssamJanuary 17, 2011If you're getting a drink at the lounge in the JetBlue terminal, make it a double for $2 more.

"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!"

"Go down the very end of the walk way. Baggage claim 1 is separate from baggage claim 2 & 3."
