LAX is embarrasing for our state and country. Terminal 4 is aweful. If you have to go to gate 52…read moreyou need an extra 45 minutes as you have to walk quite a diatance and then take a shuttle to another terminal far away. Tunnel to get there feels like you're going through a basement there's no personality and it's dirty. The only good thing I can say is that this time the staff was friendly and courteous. In times past they were rude and not very welcoming. I have a lot of concerns for LAX during the olympics. I don't think that they're ready, I don't know if they ever will be. Then I ordered a Lyft and I had to wait 15 minutes for a bus to come, it was jam-packed and then I had to go to another lot to get the car. I assume they are doing this to decrease the traffic in the terminals, which I think is a good idea, in theory. They need more buses.

TSA for us moved fairly quickly and my interactions with airport staff were all positive and pleasant, when I asked questions they responded politely.

Tom Bradley International Terminal is okay overall…read more It is not the worst airport terminal, but it is also not the best. For an international gateway in a city like Los Angeles, I expected a bit more. The food options are pretty mid. There are enough choices to get by, but nothing that really stands out or makes arriving early worthwhile. Overall, it is functional and gets the job done, but there is definitely room for improvement.

Definitely better than I remembered!

You're practically walking half the airport from security back to the gates once you get through and several of the stores aren't available due to the construction so don't expect a lot of amenities on the other side once you enter. Sears at the gates at LAX are always uncomfortable but these especially weren't great. And the best part... a loud alarm came on from a gate that did not get turned off for several minutes which is always pleasant at 5am. So if you're flying American just be prepared...

Los Angeles, California…read more.. One of my most favorite places to visit. I used to arrive at LAX (Los Angeles International Airport), but in stopped because Hawaiian Airlines got moved over to Tom Bradley Airport (International Flights) instead of being at Terminal 5. I strongly disliked dragging my luggage from Tom Bradley Airport to Terminal 5 where the rental car shuttles were. I tried Long Beach Airport, but they close early and so do the Rental Car Companies... then I get stuck without a rental car if my flight is delayed. I switched to Ontario International Airport, but this time, I needed a red eye flight which LAX had because of the merger with Alaska Airlines. It's complex, but there are some benefits (such as more flight chouces) to switching back to LAX. I'm super happy that we landed at Terminal 6. Why? 1. The rental car shuttles stop here! 2. There are several restrooms between the gate and Baggage Claim 3. Directional signs are clear and numerous 4. The environment is modern, bright, spacious, and clean. Perhaps I will return to Terminal 6 in the near future!

It definitely helped make the security process feel much smoother and less stressful. Waiting for and boarding our flight also went pretty smoothly overall. The only downside was that the seating near our gate was completely full, so we had to sit by a nearby gate until boarding started. But once we got on the plane, everything went great! We even ended up arriving a few minutes earlier than expected

Mixed thoughts about LAX T5. It's an easy to get thru if you're in gates 50 and above. And even…read moreeasier if you have TSA pre check. Never a terribly long line. When I know I'm flying out of this terminal, I don't think about getting to the airport early. Whereas if it was another terminal I absolutely would. Staff generally are annoyed but not as bad as JFK. They ain't winning awards for customer service but they do explain things pretty well. This time around I flew out of gate 52D. If you're in any of the 52 gates other than A or B, know that you need to get to the 52 gate and then you'll have to chat with a gate agent, scan your boarding pass, then take another bus to your gate. Thats how big LAX is. You need to jump on another 5 minute shuttle ride to get to your gate. The 52 gates aren't world class. It's pretty old. Probably just neglected since most of the flights here are regional / short distance flights. There's flights to Seattle, Bay Area, etc from here. Overall verdict - you could certainly do worse. But for how big it is, I think it's a pretty well oiled machine. And that in of itself earns a 3 star from me.

On our last flight from LAX to JFK, we had a 12am flight and traveling with our 3mo old puppy and everything was easy breezy.

If you are waiting to get pickup from a friend, go to the middle island where you see a sign that says Passenger Pickup. Smooth exit for me. But getting picked up is tough.

Please let me know if you know any tips about picking up to avoid the circle. It has been awhile since I have been to LAX. Always traffic in this circle of passenger pickup. Three star for the traffic. Terminal 7 overall is fine. This review is for the terminal. Don't think there is traffic review .

PARKING Parking in the garage is $9 for the first hour and $7/half hour thereafter. AUTOMATED PEOPLE MOVER There should be an elevated electric train called the automated people mover (APM) linking light rail, terminals, and parking and rental cars for use this year, pending successful testing. Hope to see this soon, as it's very much needed to alleviate traffic on roads.

Since this was her first time I made sure to make her understand each sign so that the next time she can do it on her own and I won't have to pay the extra $150 each way. I told her that airports are pretty much set up for dummies and it's pretty hard to get lost as long as you can read! The unaccompanied minor aspect was nice as we were allowed to take her all the way to the gate like we use to be able to do before 9-11. Upon her pickup in New York, her designated pickup person was a bit late and she was set up in a nice room with all kinds of amenities like games and a recliner so she was comfortable! TSA was a breeze this time around especially since you no longer have to take your shoes off! It was truly painless.
