    One of my favorite airports in the world. Something about it, makes me feel at home.

    Features exhibits by emerging artists throughout the terminals. Visit Cuban restaurant La Carreta (Concourse D), sample the roasted pork and black beans and watch folks go by. Read more

    Unlike many others who posted tips, we had no issues. VERY friendly and helpful staff at US Airways. Security checkpoint was smooth and efficient.

    The Miami airport has been inefficient for a very long time - unless you are lucky with the lines, at this airport, it is very important to allow enough advance time to get passed security.

    A surprisingly efficient airport. I was able to take a bus to my resort without issue.

    If you're traveling from the Caribbean, the baggage claim will take a while. #Travel light.

    To avoid the Concourse D international security nightmare, take a stroll down to Concourse E. The line is shorter and the concourses connect behind security.

    Sushi maki serves breakfast. Also have a breakfast sandwich to go. Eggs, ham, cheese on whole wheat toast. A healthy option among the pastries.

    This airport goes on for days! It last trams, levels, gates like you wouldn't believe. Old people get lost here or lose their life just walking around. "I've fallen, and I can't get up!"

    Do yourself a favor and sign up for a GOES Pass - You will always get TSA Pre and if flying abroad, upon your return you can avoid long lines at customs!

    The road to return your rental car is a bit of a maze within MIA airport. Be patient and follow the signs for return rental car and eventually you will get to it

    At MIA's international-domestic transfer, customs leads to baggage dropoff, which leads to a new security checkpoint RIGHT THERE!#TSAInnovation?Inconceivable!

    Arrive early, TSA lines can be long. If you’re flying American and don’t mind the walk the checkpoint in terminal E is usually pretty short.

    Getting to MIA rentals is a long walk and a train journey. Do not be misled by the breadcrumbs and raise your expectation that it is just around the corner

    There is a shuttle train that takes you to baggage claim on the ground floor, though car service pick up is on the second floor.

    Terminal D is fantastic. Lots of unique and tasty food options. Which is good because the AA Admirals Club leaves a little to be desired.

    Please come three hours before your trip. With the COVID situation and all the paperwork it takes a long time.

    If you are visiting, be sure to leave very early for your return flight in the morning. There is traffic in every direction.

    Every time I fly back in my country thru Miami I feel like I am in the rudest country of all. From customs to restaurants. Every single security person here treats people like we are a flock of sheep.

    If you are in terminal D go to checkpoint 4 in terminal E it's less crowded and there is a hall back to terminal D, saved me some time.

    Free WiFi for 30 min if you download an app on your phone. After 9 or 10pm you will not find any store to eat something on international terminals.

    If you are not a US citizen give yourself multiple hours for a layover coming into the country. The line for passport control was absurdly long! I bet many of those folks missed their connections!

    If you have to fly AA and could not find any other way to get where you need to go (bike, swim, crawl), you should see Efrain for help when (not if) AA messes up your flight. He's very helpful!

    Before listeni.g to those AA dudes at the curbside and give them a tip for checking your one extra little bag that is "too big", check out the lines inside first. They may be empty

    There are 2 gas stations RIGHT at the entrance of the return rental car road so you can save time and money by filling up literally right before you return your rental

    You gotta love Miami but you don't need to love this airport. It pretty rundown and janky. The shops & restaurants are weak too.
