    Not as crazy as it used to be. LAX had done a pretty good job of tempering the insanity.

    It usually only takes eight minutes before you can tell which airport personnel are hooking up.

    Avoid American Airlines at all costs! I will NEVER fly them ever again. Every_single_time I do, something is effed up. This time, it's taken 18 to get from Cozumel. That's right, I said COZUMEL!

    Very simple to get around. Make sure to get there ahead of time and know the alternate routs as, roads leading to it are often temporarily shut off.

    Terminal 1 has bad layout. Upscale stores where people are not going to buy, which mean long walk between gates, fighting thru crowds.

    Start loading your mobile boarding pass 10 mins before you get to security line. The cranky TSA lady told me it's better to just print out a pass. Guess I'm too tech savvy and granola for LA??

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

    Terminal 4 and 5 have the worse options for food at any airport terminal I’ve ever traveled too. And nothing is quick!

    Ended up in the terminal that's under construction and the place is a disaster. Loud, nowhere to sit, hard to find your gate and even more challenging to find a place to sit.

    Maybe when the expansion and remodeling is complete it will be much better, but right now, oh dear.

    If hungry & headed to gate 46-48 there is a Chili's To Go desk w/ decent "real" food options, e.g. BBQ chix wrap.

    Save money. There's always people that are willing to give you their carts for free. Just ASK.

    For those who have pre-check and are coming to terminal 6, use the TSA check point at Terminal 7 instead. T6 currently does not offer pre-check line, as of 09/18/2013.
