    If you're going to SW terminal 1 or 2 - heads up, you're screwed. No wifi or Starbucks, just a bar and a Chilis.

    If you're flying out of Gates 4-10, use the restroom BEFORE going through security. There is one small restroom for all gates.

    If it wasn't for flights to Mexico, you couldn't call this an international airport. Expensive to fly in and out of.

    New terminal 2 expansion is nice. Pannikin is way overpriced. Try other options.

    Better food selection downstairs before going up to security in term 1. If your flight is delayed like mine was, you're better off hanging out there since there's more space

    Extremely overcrowded terminals. If you're on a layover, you can't switch to another terminal without re-entering security.

    Don't go to the airport early. It doesn't have too many power outlets and not a lot of options for food. But internet is free!!
