    The moving walkway is not a ride. Please keep walking or politely step to the side. :)

    Arrive WAY early if you don't have TSA Pre check. The line at 7am looked like it would take over an hour (?). TSApre took like 10 minutes.

    TSA lines on left only have two I.D. Checkers for 4 lanes. So stay to the right where it's 1 checker per lane.

    If your gate is A4a or A4b don't wait until the last minute to get there from the main building. It is quite a walk.
