    Wi-Fi starts at $9.95/month per SINGLE device (from Boingo), but are you really going to use it? Plus, what use when there's no international roaming included? Booooo...

    When getting picked up, it's easier to get picked up in the departures side. Not as hectic.

    No comparison to Asian airports. Some terminals are ok but all in all... if you can just avoid it.

    The helping guys are greedy for money. They charge you more for little help. Especially Indian guys. They trap you if you too are Indians. Don't.

    Have a car service or a friend drive you to the airport. Parking is waaay to expensive.
