    Delta Airlines has been a dependable carrier. In the years I've flown I've not had a single bag lost and have experienced few delays. Fly like the pros, fly Delta.

    If you're picking someone up DRIVE SLOW - this airport gives out tickets like candy! That's not a souvenir you want.

    There are four main runways at LAX (ok, technically 8) but 24L usually gets u out the fastest...it's on the north side of the airport.

    Higher security measures, take as much out of your pockets as possible before security to speed things up!

    60 minutes in front of your flight if you know what you're doing - 120 minutes if you don't. If you don't know what I'm talking about then it's 120 minutes.

    If you're flying out on the midnight LAX - Bris flight. Don't go straight through to the Departure Gate too early. It's a desert in there.. Head over to Tom Bradley and have a beer and a meal instead.

    Avoid busy times -- Departures on Friday evenings from 7:30 pm to 1:00 am are particularly busy.

    Tip...don't walk your dog onto the escalator. Yeah some moron just did that. Tiny feet and fur don't mix with moving steps.

    I am sad that I made my friend connect through this hell called LAX. I've never been treated such like cattle and only been given Gladstones and Burger King only to eat. Virgin should know better.

    Bring an outlet splitter. Terminal 4 at LAX sucks for charging. Only 2 tiny Verizon charge hubs shared by 8 gates!

    It's degrading enough for someone to grab your junk in an overzealous security line. Don't tell me about your moonlighting acting career as you feel me up more than a first date lame security guy.

    Huge airport, for one. Terminal 5 only has two choices for food: an overpriced restaurant or vending machines.

    Virgin America terminal surprisingly dingy (off-brand for them). Tough to get from terminal to terminal. Vendor options vary and aren't great.

    When departing, have your friend drop you off at "arrivals" downstairs and take escalator up, shaves about 5-10 mins of traffic off your journey.
