    Be prepared to show your ID & boarding pass twice -once before you get on the terminal tram & again at the security checkpoint! TSA is slow even when its not busy!

    Long term parking is easy peasy. Grab the little ticket thingy by the elevator and stuff in your bag to remember where you parked.

    Skip the lines at the main airline counter by using curb side bag check. They'll get your bags checked and get you your boarding pass.

    Short term parking is free if you're in and out in less than an hour. Check flight status online and time it right =)
