    TSA here are possibly the most incompetent of any airport in the US. 2hrs prior for domestic, 4 for international. Lines are terrible and move at a snails' pace.

    It's OK, the TSA check isn't too bad. Like any other airport everything costs an arm and a leg.

    If you are lucky enough to be selected for a full body scan. Moan loudly and tell them good it feels.

    Instead of fancy signs and lights outside they should invest in more food options.

    Definitely lacking in power. LAX is in dire need of some love. The airplanes on Anerican have more conveniences... And that's sad.

    The slowest customs in the world that I've ever seen. You need at least three hours to proceed from international terminal to domestic departures if you have connected flight.
