    If you're getting picked up tell your ride to get there a half hour later than they should. I've been waiting for 35 minutes for my bag and the plane's baggage hasn't even started appearing.

    There is a low ratio of Sinks to stalls in the ladies rooms at the end of the B terminal. I just think that's nasty.
