If landing at Tom Bradley and have a quick domestic connection, make sure to request a expression connection pass.
Headed to San Juan Puerto Rico for a mini vacay with the besties and my favorite girl My baby sister Calandra Riggins!!! So excited!!!!!
@MaxJCrowleyMarch 17, 2014Need a ride? Download Uber, available on iPhone and Android, and your own driver will arrive in minutes! Use the code uberMAX for a free first ride :)
Melih ErdoganJuly 24, 2013I've lived in this airport almost for a day :) but if the flight was delayed one more time, I would think seriously to move out there or live during the rest part of my life :) it's a cool airport :P
DoubleTree by HiltonSeptember 27, 2011Long flight? Peanuts are okay, but bringing a filling, healthy snack like almonds or fruit will keep you tied over until your destination. For more travel tips and fun, follow @DoubleTree on Twitter!
IrinaAugust 14, 2014LAX is like a Frankenstein's monster: too big, too patchy, too disjointed, and too inescapable (unless you have a private air strip). But don't fret: you'll get through it.
Southwest Airlines Terminal 10 feels like a morgue. You can take a dump in peace at the very secluded bathroom.
SiobhánJanuary 26, 2019Nice to walk through and easy to move around. No real food options before security though.
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.
This place is total chaos! Great for people watching though.....every idiot think theyre a star! Bah!
LaurenApril 26, 2012Looking for pancakes? Of course you are! Hit up Monet's (terminal 6)--they've got blueberry, banana, and all the syrup and butter you could want.
Los Angeles International Airport (LAX)March 12, 2014Check out the Integrated Environmental Media System (IEMS) in the new Tom Bradley International Terminal (TBIT) next time you’re at LAX! #LAX101 #FlyLAXIntl
SerenaNovember 15, 2012One of the crowdest airport in the world. Shops are not that special, but you can find any kind of food. Welcome to LA!- Los Angeles International Airport (LAX)April 12, 2017[PIC] Air Canada moving in May from T2 to T6. Other airlines moving too.

Southwest Airlines is the best here. Always easy to check-in and fly; got me on a crucial last minute flight when Virgin refused; and somehow located me to give me my iPad I left on a plane.
Terminal 3 has a ‘Dog Relief’ area after security. It’s a good place to sit outside and catch some sun between flights.
When picking someone up who's arriving, make sure to tell him/her to wait on the ARRIVAL level (downstairs) and not DEPARTURES (upstairs). Apparently, not self-explanatory to everyone.
When coming to pick up the wife or girlfriend always bring a dozen red roses. That's how I roll.
Give yourself two hours for a domestic to international transfer. It will be far and lines will be long.
Come early just in case drop-off traffic and security is impacted! Pretty much smooth sailing afterwards ✌🏾
Compared to other airports around the area, LAX offers much cheaper options (mostly thanks to Spirit) which I appreciate. Traffic is always awful though & not much to do inside airport
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.
Lax-it is unsafe with its overcrowded buses, and lunatic drivers. Also the music in here is FULL VOLUME. WTAF?!
Noel LathamFebruary 18, 2017Don't fly with Delta! Especially if the weather is bad in LA. They where super unhelpful, and we were stranded in LAX without food, water, or any other concessions for 6 hours.
Get a seat in front of the walk path in the middle and you're bound to see some celebrities.
I am huge fan of the 'Daily Grill'which has got a perfect Bar to wait for a flight !!
Be prepared to get there early if you are unfamiliar with it. Large airport with multiple terminals can make it somewhat confusing for newcomers.- Los Angeles International Airport (LAX)February 13, 2017[PIC] Plan ahead!

narek arutyunyanDecember 10, 2010Make reservations with yellow shuttle buses (Premier Airport Van) 800-896-8645 for pick up and drop off....they have the best customer service and don't make you share the ride for shuttle prices!!- Big airport, if transiting from an international flight make sure to have 2-3 hr of layover. Staff here are slow and queue is long.
Get here earlier than you think you need to. Never know how long TSA security will take. Sometimes, the line stretches all the way down the lobby from one end to the other.
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.
With the new machines, I was able to clear the borders (for entry) in no time 👍🏻
Party on at the Delta terminal! Lots of usb power jacks and good eats.. But more space for pre-flight drinks might be nice!
If you're in a rush, the extra $20 to upgrade to business on Southwest is waaaaay worth it. You get to cut the security line, board first & get a free cocktail!
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!
Benjamin BenApril 30, 2013LAX handled 28,861,477 enplanements, the total number of passengers boarding an aircraft, in 2008. This makes LAX the third busiest airport in the U.S. in terms of enplanements.
AdamJuly 26, 2012Seating is sparse around gates. Way more people than seats available. Power outlets? You might be able to solve the US economy's issues in the time it will take you to find one.
The new farmers market in terminal 5 has yummy coffee plus great food!!- Los Angeles International Airport (LAX)September 2, 2014September construction will cause passenger impacts, so check the link to get in the know on how you can best get to your flight! http://www.lawa.org/newsContent.aspx?ID=1907 Read more

Don't take a dirty taxi! Try Uber and get a ride from a professional driver! It's clean, convenient and cheaper than a taxi! Go to www.uber.com or download Uber from the App Store or Google Play!
Where fast draw track suits with a Speedo underneath to entertain and amaze TSA, they're gonna see it all anyway. Might as well make it a show!
Kendo K.October 20, 2014The security process doesn't have the bin for your belonging. Just put everything on the belt. Becareful if it's small it might fall.
Protip: stand several feet away from the baggage claim for the best view but expect clueless people to stand directly in front of you oblivious they've blocked your view.
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.
when picking up, use the cell phone waiting lot off Sepulveda and 96. don't risk the ticket for parking at the curb.
This has gone from being one of the worst airports to one of the better ones at least the international terminal. Smart partnership with Westfield mall for a great retail experience. I'll be back.

"Best terminal in LAX, not much to say. Great retail, great restaurants, quick & easy immigration. The new TBIT was a very much welcome addition to LAX."
