TSA TIP #4 When loading your belongings onto the x-ray belts load them in an order to help expedite at the other end. THINK, (a) suit case first, (b) laptop bags/purse, & (c) your shoe & belts tray.

If you are flying United, you should join TSA's precheck program first. Allows you to breeze through security as you don't have to remove your shoes, laptop or liquids. Amazing!
LAX is changing for the better but still has long way to go. I've never had too much of a wait for TSA or immigration/customs. The main problem is the traffic getting to it. Avoid T3 and T6.
TSA TIP #5 Once through the x-ray machines take your belongings (trays) off the belts & get re-packed & dressed in the areas designated for this rather than holding up the lines at the x-ray machines.
The LAX FlyAway from Santa Monica to LAX is running! The nonstop bus service is convenient & economical ($8 one-way)! Schedule: http://www.lawa.org/welcome_lax.aspx?id=10086
TSA TIP #1: Before getting to the screening check points clean out your clothing pockets as well as any metals/jewelry etcetera and put them into your carryon bags (or jacket pockets) ahead of time.
All of the terminals have made big improvements for food/drink options and ambiance. Transportation is still a disaster. Grab and Uber or lyft from the departures level
Don’t expect to get anywhere fast. You need to take a shuttle bus (of varying frequencies) to get anywhere upon arrival… whether it’s rideshare, public transport, or rental cars. 👎
Huge! upgraded Tom Bradley Int Terminal is more modern & organized now. Rampang flight cancellations/delays esp during hols. Allow extra time to transfer between terminals
Landing in LAX from an international flight with checked bags? You'll need to go through US customs here retrieve your bags and recheck them for connecting flights. Get Global Entry and cruise through
If you have an early flight, 5am our earlier, the TSA preapproved section is not open.. You can show your boarding pass and not take off your shoes, but laptop/tablets have to come out. Now u know.
Whenever I fly out, I specifically wear my studded booty shorts and lots of massage oil all over my body to cause stress at TSA. Guaranteed enhanced pat down, if you enjoy that sort of thing! ;)
I've been through a number of airports and LAX is by far the worst...limited free Wifi and no outlets. If you have a connection make sure your phones/tablets/laptops are at full battery...or else...
You're on Jackie Brown's turf! The opening scene was shot right here. If you're arriving, look for the tiled walls on the walkway to the main terminal & hum Bobby Womack's "Across 110th Street."
Make sure you plan enough time when you are in transit! In Terminal 5, I took a walk in the most dreadful empty corridor (which seemed to be a 30 min walk), to get to the baggage claim. 🚶
There are lounge chairs that are decent for napping near the 4th floor airlinelounges in terminal 2. They're outside of the lounges so you don't need access to get to them.
In true LA fashion, the traffic at the airport can be horrendous so budget that into your timing. Also the terminals here aren't connected so make sure you know which terminal your flight leaves from.
If you decide to skip the body scanner, reenact meg ryan's dining moaning from 'Sleepless in Seattle' while getting the pat down. Keeps things fun & interesting :-)
