    Get blue wrap from SkyMall for your luggage if you are traveling to Cuba. It prevents theft, mishandling, damage, etc

    The airport as a whole is a shit hole. It’s filthy from one end to the other and makes no accommodations for travelers who have long layover. We had 11 hr layovers both ways and I will not do it again

    If you are going to take the sky train, take the elevator to and from the platform. Much quicker and easier than the escalators.

    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.

    Use valet parking in front of AA terminal D... Perfect for your Ferrari, Bentley, Maseratti,Porsche, or, in my case, a 10 yr old Toyota.

    Don't go through the first AA concourse entrance, where only one scanning machine works and they pass every family with children ahead of you. Painful!

    Early bird gets the legroom. Travel as early in the day as possible to avoid crowds and getting bumped by passengers who got bumped or cancelled earlier in the day.

    If you're flying American, upgrade to 1st class if possible - the extra $$$ you spend for the ticket is made worth it by not having to pay for checked luggage... plus comfy seats & hot towels!

    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!!!

    Tri-Rail is a smart way to get cleanly out of (or into) the chaos that is MIA. Boost your blood sugar with a pastry at "La Carreta" first!

    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.

    Starbucks will let you combine AA food vouchers. The only thing better than angry passengers are really, really caffeinated angry passengers!

    Neither Starbucks nor Au Bon Pain in terminal D serve hot breakfast. But Manchu Wok at gate D44 does, and they are very generous with the crispy bacon.

    This place is really something. Got a 10 am flight, I have to be here 4 fricking hours early. Not only international check in takes about 2 hours, boarding starts 45 mins before schedule!

    American Airlines is a freaking nightmare here and too many free TSA massages. Unless I have to, I avoid MIA airport and fly out/in of Fort Lauderdale Airport (FLL) or West Palm Beach (PBI).

    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

    It needs to be updated. The chairs are awful. There should be hours of operations for the coffee shop. I saw other signs stating the hours and they didn’t have one. Missed a purchase because of this.

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