    Terminal 4 has the most confusing and incomplete signage I've ever seen. Don't be afraid to ask for help.

    Even if you arrive over an hour early checking your bag with Jet Blue will take over 45 min thanks to employees that aren't even qualified to work at McDonald's.

    The immigration is a bit chaotic. Too many lines and you don't know where to queue. Security staff is unfriendly.

    Don't play with the daggone dogs that you see traveling with their owners. Chances are they just got a shot and are pissed.

    If you are not traveling and need food, go to Terminal 4 for the most choices pre-security. However, this will change when the expansion is complete.

    The OTG touch screens in Terminal 5 for delivering food rarely work. Great idea. Horrible execution.

    Don't get stuck overnight with JetBlue!! When Delta is offering hotel rooms & meal vouchers, JetBlue offers a bottle of water and some Sun Chips.

    Never fly out of terminal 1. This is where all air travel progress has gone to die. No pre-check, priority security, etc.

    Extremely poorly organized for arriving intl flights. Avoid flying intl thru this airport. The passengers & workers were obviously frustrated. The way it handles intl arrivals is an embarrassment.

    I must say I was discouraged after reading every ones "tips" but I got thru security in a matter of minutes. Check in on line so easy. Airport was stuffy and hot and the bathrooms were gross though
