    Forget Gladstones for a beverage! There's no open seating at the bar...the host seats everyone! What?!

    Bring less items with you and the TSA line would go faster.

    This airport is not very organized. Baggage claim can be confusing since most screen don't work and you may not know which belt your bags are on.

    Hire a good architect, me for example, to do some real renovation or new terminal design. This airport is so outdated.

    Figure out how to get rich just so you can charter a jet to avoid LAX...an then tell me how you did it so I can stop flying through here.

    Outdated airport.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

    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.

    When security says, "Do you have any gels or liquids," answering, "In my shorts, Bub," will delay you.

    LAX was designed as a sociological experiment to mess with travelers. Badly designed, understaffed TSA, and why is there nowhere to eat/get coffee before security?

    Well, LAX, you suck. Be sure your terminal is not somewhere outside the main building. Gates 44A-44J requires 10+ minutes shuttle ride from the Gate 44 (which is not an actual gate)

    Honestly what a bunch of rude bitches. If you're taking the shuttle from terminal 6, be prepared to walk down the stairs with your carry on luggage. No exceptions unless you're in a wheelchair.

    Take a good look at the ambient smog during takeoff or landing. Jesus... It's not Beijing, but it ain't pretty!
