    A safe place to spend a night at if you're having a huge layover and want to save money. No negative experience from this place.

    The Souhwest hub is at terminal 1 making it the quickest to get to, but it's also the terminal most in dire need of a facelift. No good options for food other than fast food. Eat before you go.

    For those driving more than 20 miles to get here, consider hitting the road 2-3 days early.

    Once you leave the secure area it's a ghost town by baggage claim. No stores, not even a vending machine. Lovely how they unload all priority tagged bags last.

    The Parking Spot always a good place to park on Sepulveda and you can earn free parking with points.

    I like the coffee at the admiral club. It taste so much better than the starbuck there. No wait too!

    Get the free LAX-it shuttle bus to a huge pick-up lot where you’re Uber or Lyft will pick you up.

    Pre check is the way to go. Get to keep everything on and just breeze through security.

    One of the few places you can get something for breakfast that resembles low Carb. It ain't perfect but the other restaurants in T2 are worse.

    Water fountains by bathrooms across from baggage services (past baggage claim 1) provide free refreshment after a dry flight.

    Kind of a cluster eff airport. Lines for Starbucks are insanely long in the morning and seats at the gates are extremely uncomfortable. Good luck trying to relax and nap in them :p.

    If you're connecting outward? You might be wiser to hang out in Tom Bradley. The outer terminals are a bit short on ways to kill time!

    Make sure to come with plenty of time, it takes very long to reach your terminal with this traffic

    For a major airport, LAX blows. There is nothing to do here. Your choices for food and drinks are incredibly limited and the terminals have no decent shopping, just newsstands and candy stores!

    They have Farmer's market in the airport. Stock up on #Organic goodness.

    Remember to bring your checked bags to the checked baggage xray since LAX has no inline baggage screening system in all terminals but TBIT.

    How come in the US Airways terminal, there are 3 bars, but none you can sit and order food and a beer? All 3, you have to go get your own food, then belly up. Long day, just want to be served.

    For Backpackers: take the free Green shuttle to the Metro and get around to Hollywood that way. So much cheaper than any taxi

    Limited food options in Terminal 3 for Gates 31-39: Burger King, Starbucks, and a seafood restaurant. If you want something else, plan to grab food before going to your gate.

    Love the new body scanners! Makes security checks twice as long and lines way longer. But you get a picture of your intestines, very nice!

    The security process doesn't have the bin for your belonging. Just put everything on the belt. Becareful if it's small it might fall.

    Find the Mexican Bar near the Southwest Gates. If you look straight up there's a giant penis on the ceiling. #penis
