    Get picked up at the kiss ' ride, by the CTA station. No one will hassle your driver to keep moving.

    Red Mango by gate B19 is a delicious, healthy snack. Try the berry parfait with the pomegranate fro-yo. Mmm...

    Don't go to Gold Coast, if you must send someone tall enough to see when they make them because they got order wrong twice and said I lied about my order while not giving anyone a receipt! Run-on sent

    There's a bank of something called "pay phones" between gates B10 and B12. Not sure what they're used for. Looks like something out of the future!

    Don't go to the right most line when they check your id and boarding pass (right before the security check). You'll be waiting for wheel chairs and it will take twice as long.

    Southwest is pretty awesome. Cute flight attendants and you choose where to sit (and who to sit by)

    Look for large leather arm chairs with USB and power plugs for charging.

    Better than O’Hare, but the security line was a bit of a nightmare.

    If flying SWA, get there early. TSA moves fairly quick unless you have something to be inspected. Uh oh...

    The bathroom stalls are pretty much the best in the country's airports. Luxury.

    For the love of all that is holy, do not choose the center security line. You'll lose your sanity or miss your flight. Go left.

    Use the water bottle refillers next to the water fountains. They're automatic and quite magical!

    Give yourself extra time to get to and from the Economy Lot. They must only have one bus. The wait time is terrible.

    Forget your Southwest boarding pass?? Go to the CarryOn only line and print it, then head over to the Baggage Check In

    Have a corned beef and potato pancakes at Manny's Express beside gate B14. Ask if they have applesauce for the pancakes!

    Just good for flying into and out of. Having TSA Pre Check is pointless after 8 PM.

    Stand on the right, walk on the left - escalators and moving walk ways. Just like driving - slow right, pass on left. Thanks.
