    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.

    Landing in LAX from an international flight with checked bags? You'll need to go through US customs here retrieve your bags and recheck them for connecting flights. Get Global Entry and cruise through

    TSA TIP #5 Once through the x-ray machines take your belongings (trays) off the belts & get re-packed & dressed in the areas designated for this rather than holding up the lines at the x-ray machines.

    Whenever I fly out, I specifically wear my studded booty shorts and lots of massage oil all over my body to cause stress at TSA. Guaranteed enhanced pat down, if you enjoy that sort of thing! ;)

    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.

    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

    Upgrade if you've got a long layover. It's more than worth it for access to the VIP lounge and your flight will be so much more comfortable.

    Make sure u budget extra time for arriving to your terminal. Google maps only calculates the time to get to the airport itself.

    You're on Jackie Brown's turf! The opening scene was shot right here. If you're arriving, look for the tiled walls on the walkway to the main terminal & hum Bobby Womack's "Across 110th Street."

    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...

    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

    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. 👎

    Great airport, easy to move through security quickly. Food is overpriced, but fairly efficient place to travel through.

    If you have an early flight, 5am our earlier, the TSA preapproved section is not open.. You can show your boarding pass and not take off your shoes, but laptop/tablets have to come out. Now u know.

    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. 🚶

    If you're getting a taxi or an uber / lyft, walk 5 mins down to LAX-IT. You'll save about $25+ by just doing that.

    Sign up for Global Entry to help getting through customs and immigration faster. Well worth the $100 and valid for five years, especially if when going through the madness of arrivals at TBIT!

    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.

    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.

    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.
