If using an Uber, Use the Premium service so you don’t have to trek to the LAX-it station. 🙄
Ashley SnyderApril 10, 2014Fly Virgin America when going from coast to coast! It's the best way to go!
If you have to take a cab anywhere within a 10 minute drive or less of LAX, you can fully expect your cab driver to be very unpleasant to you.
Do not get sidelined by the timeshare people trying to “help” you. Head all the way outside for shuttles and taxis.
If you're departing during the busy holiday season, drop off at Arrivals and take the escalator up.
If you're going to fly with your child, make sure you teach them to be quiet first. Some of us would like to blog and do work in silence.
Always a good idea to take a photo of your luggage before leaving with with TSA and checking it in.
Pick up people on july 4th. The cops are all, finally, somewhere else, doing useful police work. I have been parked for ten minutes in front of gates!
Be sure to run for the security que because it may already be long enough to miss your flight.
Marco TillmannJanuary 14, 2013International Terminal offers little shopping past security. Buy stuff before entering. No Post-office anywhere !! No connection between terminals. Have to exit when transferring from International.
Thursday night flight on Virgin Atlantic is the way to go for Heathrow - almost never fully booked
Get food at Lemonade! Much tastier and healthier than other airport food.
Things are really spread out. If you see a place to eat, don't pass it up.
This airport continues to exist despite its unsightly appearance and it's overall obsolescence. Customer Service, technology and restroom facilities...they are simply inadequate! Fly Burbank!
Brenton BleechmoreAugust 24, 2017Helpful staff getting us through security quickly to catch our flight.
WODHOPPERJuly 21, 2012If you plan on using the free wifi know that you will also be using up your patience as well. Slower than a snail on downers.
TSA pre check avail here. Don't take off your shoes off, laptop out, jacket off - and get your own dedicated lane!
The only thing "good" about LAX is the location, but the traffic is horrible, the wait times on or off the plane are much longer than other airports. Light rail and expansion are decades overdue.
Mark HuangAugust 1, 2018The food options are really limited in the mornings. Plus the lines are super long. I would suggest to have breakfast somewhere else and not at the airport.
Get a delta sky club membership. It pays for itself in free booze in no time flat.
ptFebruary 23, 2019infrastructure so old it might as well be a museum. if possible, fly into or connect through other airports.
JstneyApril 6, 2014Korean air doesn't do combined luggage weight so make sure you maximize each luggage weight of 25 kilos
MetroSeeker.comOctober 3, 2011The WiFi is "provided" by T-Mobile: $6.00 for the first hour. $0.10 per minute thereafter; or with a 24-hour DayPass that is available for $9.99.
Germán LópezOctober 21, 2013Come on, only a few electrical connections works in this airport? It's almost impossible to find a working current connection for your phone or laptop.
Niklas GlaserJuly 9, 2012If you value your own sanity stay as far away from anything United Airlines related. Their customer service reps take pride in making sure you hate the company as much as they do.
SkyMallMarch 10, 2011Nothings more comforting than the Butternut Squash Soup at Wolfgang Puck's restaurant by gate 70 in LAX. If your still hungry, we recommend the Barbequed Chicken Pizza from their hearth-style oven.
Check out encounters if you have a layover. Have family/friends wait at in & out, especially if you're coming into bradlee, long lines & no signal during immigration.
Make sure to arrive at least 1 and a half hours early to get through security.
Andrew ApostolaSeptember 15, 2011Welcome to California! You're going to have one of the best times of your life here. Make sure you rent a car though...
LTC landing in Los Angeles! So great to be back to our roots on the Left Coast!
KrystieOctober 19, 2012If your arriving at the airport on or after 10pm - leave 20 min early or do NOT take 105 to the airport. Construction has traffic backed up into one lane at the airport exit off 105!
If you have a few hours layover, check your bags then head to a nearby beach and grab some decent food.
Los Angeles International Airport (LAX)December 3, 2014Pardon our dust! Ongoing construction in December will impact travels. Info: http://ow.ly/FiMvU Traffic tips + more: LAXisHappening.com
Scott EdsonApril 16, 2014Asked 4 different people for help and it wasn't until the 5th that they were actually helpful. Make sure they are listening. Flight was also delayed but they handled it very well.
Justin MaddenSeptember 27, 2013Get here early. The line for the TSA security clearance is always a long and nerve racking experience.
Matija DjumicDecember 16, 2012A safe place to spend a night at if you're having a huge layover and want to save money. No negative experience from this place.
Sean O'HanlonNovember 21, 2011Do you care about Energy Security and/or the Environment? Let your airline know via Twitter that you want to fly on domestically produced #biofuels!
LAX... Everything is going so slow on. When they will change this, its a Los Angeles's Airport ! Omg.- Adam TothFebruary 15, 2017Huge and very crwoded airport, arrive well before departure because the traffic is extreme.
- Los Angeles International Airport (LAX)February 6, 2017Real-Time Parking Availability for LAX is now available. Please visit the link below for more information. #LAX101 http://ow.ly/kEQH308JZUf
The Parking Spot always a good place to park on Sepulveda and you can earn free parking with points.
Check out the once-Golden Gate Theater (only bldg on the Natl Reg of Historic Places in East LA) - http://ht.ly/5DFVc
For those driving more than 20 miles to get here, consider hitting the road 2-3 days early.
Kinda MaryApril 30, 2015Know your area and the ins and outs of the airport and it could be a greaaat experience!
Achievement unlocked: arriving early and sitting on the Tarmac while the gate is still occupied. Killing time reading the tips
