    It never fails, it would seem Iron Man is in front of me at the security check point. Took this guy 6 time to make it through Dude, yes you have to take off your shoes. You don't know this by now.

    A lot of options to get to and get off from it, but can be really messy with so many shuttles, buses, taxis, etc.

    Free wifi is fine and security from early international flights that get here before 6 is a walk.

    TeamTRI says If you're driving into LAX around Gate 1 and need to get to Gate 6 or 7 use the cut across rather than drive the whole horseshoe. Saves time and hassle and is usually not crowded.

    For wifi choose LAX-WiFi and open in Safari. Watch a 30-sec ad from one of the sponsors (mine was Ford) and you're good to go

    If you have an American Express platinum card, head to the sky lounge and grab yourself a drink. Great place to get a snack and wifi. Best when free.

    Departing T5 and need cappuccino? Walk straight ahead at the top of the escalator to Farmers Market. GOOD cappuccino!

    If you're headed to Santa Monica or Venice, take the Lot C bus to the LAX Transit Center and ride the Big Blue Bus #3 north. Takes longer than a taxi, but you can spend the money you save at In-N-Out.

    First time flying Virgin, how fitting ;). Love it! So easy, staff is really cool. Love their company culture & excellent prices. I'll forgive them for playing Adam Lambert at the ticketing desk...

    If you are going to South Bay by taxi be prepared for the angry taxi driver who wants the big fairs not the $20flat rate to the beach. Rumor is there is a airport shuttle to the green line station

    Take it from a lifelong Angeleno: Pay the $3 to park in the garages and meet your party at baggage. It will make getting out easier.

    Asked 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.

    Make sure you plan enough time when you are in transit! In Terminal 5, I took a walk in the most dreadful empty corridor (which seemed to be a 30 min walk), to get to the baggage claim. 🚶

    Perhaps I just got here on a bad day, but this is the least efficient and least intuitive airport I've ever been to. If you fly through here, plan on a longer layover than normal!!

    If you stay at the Sheraton next to LAX, don't! Sleep on your luggage in the grass. The bed was like sleeping on sail cloth on top of 1/8" plywood on top of old truck leaf springs. F this place

    Southwest terminal was never a great place to wait, but it's worse now with construction. If you have time to kill, do it before going thru security.

    Check out Encounter - This restaurant is inside the "futuristic" Jetsons-looking structure in the middle of LAX. The experience is complete with 60's Star Trek-esque tunes in the elevator ride up!

    LAX Terminal 6 has the most power outlets you will find in any North American airport. It's also incredibly loud so don't plan on too many productive business calls.

    If you're picking someone up, park in the central lot rather than trying to fight the traffic. It doesn't cost much and will save you a huge headache.

    The library at terminal 6 is small but nice, the coffee bean was probably one Of the cheapests (don't get tour hopes up) but the wifi is HORRIBLE
