    Try your best to never use this airport. It is the least efficient facility I've ever used.

    The map in the airline magazine makes the trip look deceptively short. Use the sky rail to get to your gate.

    It's huge and a bit complicated to get it. Worst thing is to find your car at parking. But is new and clean.

    Terminals are very far from each other. Not enough people movers or other forms of transportation throughout the facility.

    Fun fact: The original name of Miami International Airport was Dorothy Zbornak Regional Airport.

    Layover? Why not do a little shopping? Miami international is just minutes away from the Airport and offers discounts for tourists, pick up a coupon book at the Guest Services Booth.

    Take the sky train. It's a train that will transport you through out concourse D. Or if you like you can walk the full concourse all 1.4 miles.

    I like the rainbow walk way part! But you only get to go through it when you are leaving

    Walk to the far left end of the terminal to catch the hotel shuttles - you'll be the first on and you just flag them down.

    Gate F7 has a ratchet snack shop and not much else. Have to walk further to get actual food. But hey, it’s Miami bitch!

    This airport is not for the faint of heart, the disabled, or anyone running late. Expect a 20m wait minimum…regardless of your status, TSA Pre-Check, etc.

    Weirdly laid out airport. Eat in Miami before you arrive at the airport. Only crapy Pizza Hut in boarding area for West Jet.

    This was the longest walk to passport control and what seems to be the longest line I've ever seen. Green Card holders go to the same line as visitors. If no Global Entry or no citizen - get ready...

    Surprisingly, the airport has not been refurbished probably in the last 20 years and is very shabby-looking...

    Very few vegan options. Super lame for a city that has many vegan options. Subway and Jamba Juice is basically it.

    There is not enough place to shop and spend time. Is this what you understand from duty free?

    There are ZERO signs to direct to the care hire station. Until after you get on the train and exit 2

    Watch what line you get in during customs check. The customs officer will pull a Jack Bauer and interrogate the heck out of you. I hate this airport. Don't fly AA either. They will f@ck up everything.

    Avoid traffic, & take the Metrorail to the airport, just like you'd take the subway to JFK Airport in New York !! Coming 2012. The biggest favor Miami will do for both its citizens & tourists !!

    Taxi fare to/from the airport is flat in most cases. Double check before taking any shuttle bus as taxi might be cheaper!

    Even though the signs direct you up to the skytrain, it's often faster and more pleasant just to walk along the concourse.

    If you use the Skytrain (and you probably will), take the elevators. The escalators are lonnnng - and take a lot longer.

    Huge place. Take into account that you would need to use the SkyTrain. It's free.
