    There is a line before 430 am. They don't open security before then.

    Pros: Free wifi from LAX and Verizon charging stations. Cons: Worst Starbucks line ever. If you think you found the end of it, look across the hallway because it probably continues. :(

    If you're flying to DC National, fly Alaska Air. Good planes, friendly staff, no lines.

    If you have to go gate 44, get food prior. There isn't many options in this mini-terminal.

    The queue was so huge we started queuing at the street! US Airways and the security in this airport is a mess!

    If you fly United Premium, don't forget you can check in and go through security at Terminal 6.

    The US Air terminal has crappy places to relax and have a beer. Gordon Biersch has good beer but bad atmosphere.

    Food options are poor in every terminal. Stop by in-n-out before you enter the airport

    No need to arrive two hours early on a Tuesday afternoon. Of course, Cocktails are just steps away!

    Baggage checkin was unpleasant, unfriendly AirFrance staff, 3 times the baggage checkin ports changed. Security check was close to HELL: waiting lines where massive. After that everything was ok!

    Even coming 3 hours early and on MDMA won't make this airport any better. Even if they have free cocktails by naked women still won't make this place less painful.

    Nice new carpet, nothing real to eat though. You probably should have grabbed a nice bite in the main terminal. Enter regret and slight hunger.

    Make sure to leave yourself extra time- they started using the body scanner at security. It takes FOREVER.

    Arrive extra early for American Eagle flights, you are shuttled on the tarmac to your gate.

    Shuttles to the long term parking lots depart next to the blue signs. The signage at LAX doesn't mention parking at all.
