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

    Copa sucks. Be sure to have them verify and stamp your final destination at the counter before going to the gate

    If you fly thru here, go straight to your next gate if you have time. Otherwise you'll get lost.

    Another stupid airport with next to zero recharge stations. Visit SJC to see how it's done.

    Skip the backscatter xray and save yourself the radiation. You may even enjoy the pat-down!

    Outdated airport. Terminal 4 does not have enough restrooms. If can access airline lounges waiting time will be way better.

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

    if you're flying southwest, print your boarding pass at home to save time in the "check baggage only" line.

    Don't forget to throw the "ROC" sign when you go through the x-ray scanner in security.

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

    Terminal 1 is way crowded in the AM. If you're on united you should take the shortcut.

    Almost no shops or restaurants on terminal Tom Bradley after you pass security. If you're not flying on business, stay out until the last minute or you'll get really bored.
