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

    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

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

    TGI Fridays at this airport is a well-run place with really good food.

    When choosing your travel outfit, less is more. Avoid wearing clothing, jewelry or other accessories that contain metal when traveling to cut your time barefoot in the security line.

    If you’re not flying American Airlines take the far right driving lane around the departure lanes to reach most other airlines.

    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.

    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.

    If you're visiting MIA, get cash before the taxi stand, most cabs don't take cards.

    Do not take 3 shots before you get on a plane from Key West to MIA. This guy just discovered it can get a little CHOPPY!

    The low numbered D gates (D1 - D11) are really, really far from security. It is an honest 15 minute walk to get here. Allow plenty of time (or run!)

    The D Terminal is long but if your gate is less than one skytrain stop away it's walkable.

    If you have to fly into this 3rd world country go AA and run don't walk to nearest Admirals Club and buy a day pass!

    Make sure you have a 'cortadito' at Versailles before you leave or when you land. Viva el cafe cubano!

    Don't wear a skirt because tsa will assume you're smuggling drugs and subject you to a RANDOM search.

    Never, ever, select any kind of American Air upgrade whatsoever- it's a scam. EX: the checkin kiosk says $80 to upgrade to 1st class. But, once u pay it turns out it is only to put u on standby list.

    If you're going from the AA terminal to LAN terminal, it looks like I could have cut across level 3 of the parking lot for a shortcut.

    Leave lots of extra time to get to your gate. One of the worst laid out airports ever. Like a long snake. If you get on / off near the end you have miles to go to or from your gate.

    This is by far the most unorganized & under staffed airport I have ever been to. Immigration is a nightmare, no matter if u r a citizen, resident or visitor!

    TSA is just as at any other airport but they got good food options. Some terminals are better than others just like any other airport. Be prepared to walk though.
