    Honestly getting through immigration is pretty painless here. Lots of lanes opened during peak times.

    Do yourself a huge favor and buy a travel baggage scale. You don't want to be that person pulling underwear from your overstuffed bag or paying $100 for excess weight.

    Be careful with the curb side checking individuals from American, they will give you wrong information regarding bag and carry on suitcases to charge you extra, and the weights are swayed!!!

    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.

    Forget the soggy, pre-packaged wraps and bite-sized, overpriced salads... La Carreta is where it's at.

    TSA agents communicate effectively and help keep things moving along so you're not stuck on an unnecessarily long line.

    If you want to try the most authentic Cuban food in Miami, go to Havana Spice in Dadeland Mall (downtown kendall). www.havanaspicecafe.com

    Valet parking is $30 Daily in the garage! FLL valet is a little less and it’s at the doors to the entrance!

    Recommend the Ku-Va restaurant better then " La Carreta " the food is better there,and for the same price you get more on your plate. It's next to D20 and across from Wendy's

    Ask for directions--the signage makes no sense and you can easily walk in circles if you don't get some expert help from airport staff. #MIAisAwful

    If you are making an international connection make sure you leave yourself at least 2 hours in between flights. It is a huge and confusing airport.

    Be prepared for a long hike to the taxi stand. There are several stands dotted around but only one is manned. If you go to unmanned stand the taxis will just shoot by.

    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

    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.

    Metrorail to airport from downtown was pretty good: convenient (big wheeled bag was fine, with escalators, no stairs) and cheap ($2!) -- but not fast. Just under an hour, from office door to terminal.

    Make sure to get here 2 hrs a head of time. Everyone here is very slow and not accommodating. The security line is always long. I've never had a good experience here.

    Taxi to/from Mia Beach is a fixed rate of $32. Takes 10 minutes from SoBe, if no traffic. If on a budget, & have the time, the MIA Flyer (150 line) bus runs twice an hour, takes 45 minutes, $2.25.

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

    To everyone bags are late and you have to wait little bit, so keep that in mind if you are taking a cab or someone is picking you up

    Use the sky train to get between gates or be prepared for a LONG walk (unless your gate numbers are close together of course).

    If you're planning on taking a cab, make sure you have cash. Even if you're lucky enough to find a cab with a credit card machine, the driver will tell you it's broken. #MiamiNeedsUber

    99% of the power outlets in the Delta H terminal don't work because they're looser than ... well, you can think of your own euphemism.
