Leah BarlowMay 9, 2013Try another airport security blows lines are long walks take forever and a day! Got a nice watch tho
Use Checkpoint 4 unless you have TSAPrecheck... CK2 is always crowded.
Rum Punch at The Islander Bar is a preview of the beach life 💕
Aldo CondemarinMay 20, 2012If you need to get into Concourse D go all the way down to Checkpoint 1, it's faster
Ultressa DiamondApril 18, 2015Early morning flight back to DCA! TSA lines were short and a smooth process getting through👍
Abi LeonardMarch 12, 2013If you're flying American, go through security checkpoint 4--significantly less traffic and it drops you between gates 30-40.
Look at the Arrival/Display monitor before asking employees which gate your flight leaves out of. Only the ones wearing a red jacket know.
Dawn SimonMarch 27, 2011Oh, and don't get too annoyed by people who don't speak English very well. It IS Miami you're in. Be patient. :D
There is a mall near this airport. Brazucas have fun!
Kara BSeptember 18, 20142 words. More renovations soon. Be sure to arrive early too traffic here is a nightmare
Charlie EllisonSeptember 24, 2014It's ridiculous that airline employees can cut in front of you in the security line here. There should be a separate line for them.
Maurice DixonSeptember 22, 2011The shuttle on the top floor of Terminal D was a life saver. I couldn't fix my mind to walk past 47 gates.
TheTrunkDecember 16, 2011Make sure to download your Netflix movies and charge your phones before boarding the plane!
Sean SieglerMay 19, 2013If you are flying American Airlines, get here like 7 hours early because they don't staff enough people at the counters.
Kat MarjiJanuary 26, 2014Be on time! This place is huge and is crammed with people shoulder to shoulder...
It is MAJORLY beneficial to upgrade to first class for AA. You get 2 FREE PRIORITY bag checks, Ur own FC no wait security line,Preboarding/exiting &FC seating
Arrive AT LEAST 2 hours early for an American Airlines international flight. Checkin and screening has long lines! Never fails.
Sandrushka KamachovaMarch 29, 2015The gates that connect flights to the Caribbean are small and have not food offer inside, better eat something outside first.
- Bluetooth speakers have to be taken out of your carry on at security here.
Try not to connect through this airport internationally. It’s one of the worst airport as it will make you go through very long security lines again. Will take no less than 2 hours to connect
Jessica AnavimJanuary 20, 2017There isn't any free wifi here, and it's the most confusing airport layout I've ever seen.
Debi QuadeJune 17, 2012To buy, sell, or invest in Miami real estate call me at Cervera Real Estate. "When Experience Matters ". Debi Quade 305.401.2169. Debi@DebraQuade.com
Holly RussellMay 4, 2013Make sure you leave real early. Cab tire blew up. I could have been at the beach waiting for the next flight
Nice sky train, fast and quick! Not to mention the new AA terminal is very nice if you want to walk!
Cynthia Foster KriegerAugust 31, 2012Check out the current art installation "women of a new tribe". Beautiful way to pass a layover.
E ROctober 27, 2010Huge multi-carton boxes of cigarettes duty free on concourse H (by the Starbucks). However, you have to have an international boarding pass to purchase them.
Did they hire Nigerian con artists to set up the free wifi network or something?
Ed KavisheJuly 24, 2012Getting into The City and South Beach is easier by taking a TAXI...TSA is multi lingual
MarianaApril 22, 2012The security lines are always SUPER long!!! Make sure you come at least 2 hrs before your flight!!
Malek AlmutairiDecember 1, 2016This airport is AWFUL. I finally got out of there almost 3 hours AFTER I ARRIVED! Everyone had to wait in line for passport control for a little over 2 hours!
Emily BrandsMay 27, 2013Don't travel via MIA from overseas- immigration/baggage claim/rechecking is brutal!
