    When you land at LAX late at night, coordinate being picked up at the departures/upper level as it's less crowded than the arrivals/lower level.

    Love that the airline shuffle made the airport more seamless in knowing where to go and what terminal you fly out of or into. Best decision ever!!

    Terminal 3 near gate 38 has earthbar. Healthy options at the airport. I love Green Detox (Kale, Pineapples, banana, hemp milk).

    Very big, but passanger friendly airport, where the airlines shared the terminals, and this makes your life easy. However, not too much DutyFree or food court.

    Nice airport with handy connections to the city. Didn’t take long for me to be in my gate. There are some good places to eat inside, like the Santa Monica Brew Works pub.

    Take a flyaway bus to get here, driving/parking on your own is a horror. Come ready to move fast

    I love LAX - they don't clean it well so when I am here, I know some dirt that touched my father's feet is probably touching mine. It's like a family pilgrimage to come here!

    This airport is always under construction and you can easily lose your way back to your terminal if you leave it. However the airport is stocked with all kinds of food in different terminals.

    Seriously, just park your car offsite. It’s less hassle than waiting for a ride share or asking someone to pick you up.

    All of the terminals have made big improvements for food/drink options and ambiance. Transportation is still a disaster. Grab and Uber or lyft from the departures level

    If you come early and your flight is at night the most efficient solution to visit the city is renting a car which allows to carry your luggage if your airline is not open all day.

    LAX is changing for the better but still has long way to go. I've never had too much of a wait for TSA or immigration/customs. The main problem is the traffic getting to it. Avoid T3 and T6.

    If you're flying AA (or anyone out of terminal 4), stop by Homeboy Bakery for the best eats- and help a favorite nonprofit in the LA community as an added bonus! It's right after security

    If you are on United express take a short cut from the first gate entry in terminal 7 (with pre-tsa it is fastest) and then get ready for a nice brisk walk to terminals at the very end between 81 - 86

    In true LA fashion, the traffic at the airport can be horrendous so budget that into your timing. Also the terminals here aren't connected so make sure you know which terminal your flight leaves from.

    I've been through a number of airports and LAX is by far the worst...limited free Wifi and no outlets. If you have a connection make sure your phones/tablets/laptops are at full battery...or else...

    Mind your booking details! We were told traffic would be bad, so get there early. We were told TSA lines would be bad, so get there early. All well and good except the ticket counter isn't open.

    The United terminal has a lot more pricier eateries that close about 11pm so if you don't want 2 spend a lot, eat before you come, or try out the Food connection spot. It's the least expensive option.

    There are lounge chairs that are decent for napping near the 4th floor airline lounges in terminal 2. They're outside of the lounges so you don't need access to get to them.

    Don’t expect to get anywhere fast. You need to take a shuttle bus (of varying frequencies) to get anywhere upon arrival… whether it’s rideshare, public transport, or rental cars. 👎
