Bring snacks from home and arrive at least an 1.5 before your plane departs ;)
Be happy and enjoy the flight. There are a bajillion other worse things you could be doing. Like digging ditches, being incarcerated or sitting in a boring meeting.
Los Angeles International Airport (LAX)July 31, 2014US Airways Express will operate from T4 instead of T3 beginning August 1. Contact airline for details
Terminal 4, American Airlines with the very soft sexy lighting. Very chill terminal.
Keith SchulnerMarch 21, 2014There are some outlets behind seats near wall at terminals. If you are not charging something, please try to avoid taking up seats near charging centers. Thank you.
One of the ugliest/hard to navigate airports I've every been through. Make sure you know your gate...no shuttle between terminals....:-(
Flagship lounge for AA in terminal 4 is a step up from other admirals clubs I've been to.
Originally known as Mines Field airplanes have been landing and departing here since 1930
Write down where you parked and remember arrivals and departures are on two different levels... Not a fun place to get lost after a long flight
Claire MaeDecember 16, 2014Comp hotel airport shuttles right outside arrivals, there's a five guys 10 minutes up the road 👍
Bob SextonMarch 23, 2015It's an airport. You just need to know how to get through all the traffic to make it a quick pick up or drop off.
When flying out from lax, always arrive two hours before departure. The lines at lax can be extremely unpleasant.
Red eye to Chicago to see mom & grateful for the @Delta elite flyer upgrade! #travel #brandloyal #hometown
I always take a Benadryl a half hour before I fly so I can sleep/nap through long flights... It also makes me not care as much about turbulence.
It's LAX. You're here because you have to be here. Get TSA Precheck
Compared to other airports around the area, LAX offers much cheaper options (mostly thanks to Spirit) which I appreciate. Traffic is always awful though & not much to do inside airport
Don't eat a peanut butter and jelly sandwich with a banana milkshake before your 6 hour trip from NYC to LAX.
Is it too much to expect people to wear clean cloths n these crowded buses? I am sandwiched between two of the funkiest men I've ever smelt, eye opening!
Xavier VSeptember 26, 2017For an airport so important, moving around is not very easy; the eateries are difficult to find, and some of the staff was not very helpful.
Don't forgot to try the coffee in the baggage claim in terminal 2 there's this little unknown coffee shop named sbux give em a try
The new Tom Bradley is very nice, except bad ventilation from the restaurants. I dislike having food smell on my clothes especially when I did not dine at such location.
Liza PApril 10, 2017LAX is a ridiculous clusterf*ck. Huge, jammed with traffic, impossible to get around.
If you're picking someone up at LAX, don't waste money by driving around in circles or parking. Wait at the Cell Phone Parking Lot (it's free!) until your party calls you that they're ready.
Jordan SkoleOctober 2, 2010Like california what midwest state plays home to some of the nations greatest global green & tech startups? Is it yours? http://j.mp/aAOn0x for the answer!
Chris GunrackAugust 16, 2014Have a long layover? Take the #6 bus to Santa Monica for some beach time!
Chris FuschMay 31, 2013Flew Southwest, got to airport at 3:10 pm, flight departed 4:00 pm. Made it through security, had time for a drink and the plane left on time. Very impressed!
CJ UrbanNovember 17, 2011Check out the Aviation Architecture, and Art from Artists of both local and global origins.
Many terminals. Get ready for long wait and long walk.
United club near gate 60 has a pretty full breakfast option of fruit, bagels, cereal, yogurt, juice, coffee, etc.
Kyle PetersJuly 27, 2011If you're picking someone up and arrive early, theres some secret parking on the side of the roads that go through the middle of the airport.
After a long flight of sixteen hours finally I reached Los Angeles
Busiest airport ever so be prepared for tons of traffic
Spirit airline sucks but def cheap. Sometimes $29 one way to Vegas. Check spirit airlines flight status before u depart to see if its delayed.
Gus MoreiraOctober 12, 2014Very easy to navigate and well signed, although the airport is quite busy. Immigration is also quite slow
Kate HughesApril 24, 2013get here early- and dont check your bags. check in line PLUS security line will take you HOURS.
Harvey ReeserAugust 23, 2013Best way to get out of LAX is the FLYAWAY bus to Union Station and then back for your flight the same way.
Unlike Midway airport, if you hear the "moving sidewalk" at LAX it's due to an earthquake. Stay calm it will be over in second.
United is the WORST most ARCHAiC Airline known to mankind. Upgrade your seat & you still WON'T be invited to first class. Snack or TV en route?! Forget about it. helpful people during check in? NONE
AdamJuly 26, 2012The problem with LAX is you never know how long its going to take. You might breeze through security in 15 min. It might also take 3 hours.
If you are stinky from travel, go spray cologne / purfume from the Duty Free store samples. Your stench will be more pleasant.
If you can, avoid the guys outside who offer to bring your bags to your check in. They make fun of you if you don't tip 20 bucks
If this is rare, I'd hate to see what killed is. From the restaurant across gate 52 in delta terminal.
Brian CampbellJanuary 16, 2015The people. I have just spent an hour talking with random, fascinating people.
