    I've seen gas stations with nicer and cleaner bathrooms. Delta terminal bathrooms are gross!

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

    The T4 is the worst international departure terminal I' ve ever been. Few food options, no good restaurants, no stores, small duty free, and wifi doesnt work everywhere ...boring!

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

    If you have premier access for united always use the security between gate 6&7. The gate 7 security has no premier access

    When bag check lines are long, go to 'no baggage' kiosk to print boarding passes. THEN drop bags off. Saves you time like Crazy. Ur welcome

    Wear sunglasses through the terminal and watch gawkers try to figure out which celeb you are.

    When you go through the x-ray body scanner, clench your butt cheeks to give the TSA Technician something to think about.

    Take the Fly Away bus to LAX. It's very convenient and cheap ($6 one way). You don't have to worry about parking your car.

    Check your boarding pass to see if you were randomly selected for TSA pre-check. Security lines are very long here.
