    One of the few places you can get something for breakfast that resembles low Carb. It ain't perfect but the other restaurants in T2 are worse.

    I like the coffee at the admiral club. It taste so much better than the starbuck there. No wait too!

    Pre check is the way to go. Get to keep everything on and just breeze through security.

    Find the Mexican Bar near the Southwest Gates. If you look straight up there's a giant penis on the ceiling. #penis

    The Souhwest hub is at terminal 1 making it the quickest to get to, but it's also the terminal most in dire need of a facelift. No good options for food other than fast food. Eat before you go.

    Upside: SW gate employees are always crazy helpful. Downside: constant construction in the terminal.

    If you're connecting outward? You might be wiser to hang out in Tom Bradley. The outer terminals are a bit short on ways to kill time!

    Kind of a cluster eff airport. Lines for Starbucks are insanely long in the morning and seats at the gates are extremely uncomfortable. Good luck trying to relax and nap in them :p.

    Once you leave the secure area it's a ghost town by baggage claim. No stores, not even a vending machine. Lovely how they unload all priority tagged bags last.

    Water fountains by bathrooms across from baggage services (past baggage claim 1) provide free refreshment after a dry flight.

    Traffic laws become optional in here as it becomes a reckless, lawless, free-for-all where traffic cops don't give a ****

    Remember to bring your checked bags to the checked baggage xray since LAX has no inline baggage screening system in all terminals but TBIT.

    For a major airport, LAX blows. There is nothing to do here. Your choices for food and drinks are incredibly limited and the terminals have no decent shopping, just newsstands and candy stores!

    How come in the US Airways terminal, there are 3 bars, but none you can sit and order food and a beer? All 3, you have to go get your own food, then belly up. Long day, just want to be served.

    It is possible to do a LAX / ORLANDO round trip the same day and have fun but you have to go nonstop on Delta or United

    For Backpackers: take the free Green shuttle to the Metro and get around to Hollywood that way. So much cheaper than any taxi

    Welcome to America. Make a run to clear the immigration area. It gets mighty busy. You don't want to miss your connecting flight!

    Love the new body scanners! Makes security checks twice as long and lines way longer. But you get a picture of your intestines, very nice!

    Limited food options in Terminal 3 for Gates 31-39: Burger King, Starbucks, and a seafood restaurant. If you want something else, plan to grab food before going to your gate.

    A lot of Air Canada codeshare flights leave from United terminal 8, which doesn't have duty-free. Get your stuff ahead of time if you remember.

    The security process doesn't have the bin for your belonging. Just put everything on the belt. Becareful if it's small it might fall.

    Get the free LAX-it shuttle bus to a huge pick-up lot where you’re Uber or Lyft will pick you up.
