    It's a small jet today, if you need water to take a pill or need the lavatory, go now while our aircraft is delayed. Lol

    It's kind of a metaphor for the city of Miami as a whole: busy, crowded, exotic people all around, growing too quick in a disorganized manner, more Spanish than English, and has a lot of potential.

    Nice and modern airport. It gives a minimal feeling.

    The American Airlines international check in process is freaking brutal. Take some tips from southwest.

    Always remember to arrive and stay drunk while at this airport... There is no other proven scientific alternative to survive your stay here...

    Pretty dumpy with poor eating options. You can’t go to every terminal without leaving the secured area.

    Coldest airport ever, including American gate agents!! Bring a sweater and avoid interacting with the American Airlines gate agents if you can.

    Never plan on getting there early for your flight, delays are the norm here obviously. To top it off they will have you standing waiting due to the other delayed groups of people. No seats!

    The Counter @ Terminal 34 has a kick ass playlist but weak ass drinks. Still, mad props for playing Two of Us by the Beatles...we are indeed on our way home...

    There's nothing good to eat. Your best options include McDonald's and some third-tier derivative of Applebee's.

    Avoid the Starbucks kiosks and hit up a Versailles or La Carreta for some amazing coffee [and great Cuban food too]. Get a pastelito while you're at it.

    You have to try La Carreta! Get the Arroz Imperial. They give generous portions.

    Take the Airport Express 150 Bus for $2.35. Incredibly diverse airport, but also quite unorganized. Arrive extra early.

    International to local connections are a nightmare. Endure you have a minimum of 2.5 hrs between arrival and departure.

    I've traveled through lots of airports in my life and have to say MIA is one of, if not the, most confusing ones I've ever experienced...may just be American Airlines but they really seem disorganized

    Have an extended layover? Take the Airport Flyer (150) bus to South Beach. About 30 minutes & $2.35 each way! Get off at Lincoln & Washington. Just beware the security line upon your return. Nasty.

    Make sure you take good care of your stuff while going through the TSA. Belongings get lost fairly quick.

    Do not get a taxi from here - you cannot get Uber's from here either. Take the train &/or mover then Uber from there.

    Unlike other cities, Cab drivers don't all take credit cards, ask before you get in!

    From the signage inside and out to the MIA Mover to the perpetually-under-construction roads, this is one of the most poorly designed airports in North America.
