    7:30pm on a Saturday night in terminal 1. All the stores are closed including food places. What the heck?!!

    Be sure to check your bag if it's even remotely over carry-on size. I hadn't had to check a certain bag anywhere in the world until here and the lady was nasty and made me wait in more lines. Not cool

    If you like being able to eat or drink something before your flight don't fly Southwest. Slim pickings coupled with long waits equals a fistful of suck.

    Ask for Antonio for a pat down at TSA. He has a soft touch.

    The food here is a joke. Nothing but refrigerated sandwiches that cost 9 bucks. Be sure to eat before passing thru secretly if you're flying out of.
