    Weirdly laid out airport. Eat in Miami before you arrive at the airport. Only crapy Pizza Hut in boarding area for West Jet.

    Take the sky train. It's a train that will transport you through out concourse D. Or if you like you can walk the full concourse all 1.4 miles.

    Watch what line you get in during customs check. The customs officer will pull a Jack Bauer and interrogate the heck out of you. I hate this airport. Don't fly AA either. They will f@ck up everything.

    Airport is huge and sometimes confusing but its 20-30mins away from the beach who can complain about that?

    On a Monday morning it doesn't matter if you have entry via "Priority Access"...you will have to wait...air travel morning rush hour!!!
  • Miami International Mall
    Layover? Why not do a little shopping? Miami international is just minutes away from the Airport and offers discounts for tourists, pick up a coupon book at the Guest Services Booth.

    Holy freaking shit!! If you are a US resident and not citizen they put you in the visitor line...all of Latin America will be ahead of you when you arrive so fly through Dallas instead!

    Terminals are very far from each other. Not enough people movers or other forms of transportation throughout the facility.

    Just a few options for food on Terminal D. Starbucks ends being one of the best.

    Surprisingly, the airport has not been refurbished probably in the last 20 years and is very shabby-looking...

    The map in the airline magazine makes the trip look deceptively short. Use the sky rail to get to your gate.

    Avoid traffic, & take the Metrorail to the airport, just like you'd take the subway to JFK Airport in New York !! Coming 2012. The biggest favor Miami will do for both its citizens & tourists !!

    Taxi fare to/from the airport is flat in most cases. Double check before taking any shuttle bus as taxi might be cheaper!

    Try your best to never use this airport. It is the least efficient facility I've ever used.

    Walk to the far left end of the terminal to catch the hotel shuttles - you'll be the first on and you just flag them down.

    This airport is not for the faint of heart, the disabled, or anyone running late. Expect a 20m wait minimum…regardless of your status, TSA Pre-Check, etc.

    Very few vegan options. Super lame for a city that has many vegan options. Subway and Jamba Juice is basically it.

    Even though the signs direct you up to the skytrain, it's often faster and more pleasant just to walk along the concourse.

    They are now enforcing the "your bag needs to fit in this metal frame that is much smaller than the actual overhead space" rule. Couldn't get through security and will have an hour tacked onto trip.

    Huge place. Take into account that you would need to use the SkyTrain. It's free.
