New terminal is so chic! Great food & beverage options!
Parking and Security are fast! Always use LGB or SNA and avoid LAX whenever possible.
Jen OngMay 27, 2013The new terminal is beautiful. Less people and less line up here, even on a holiday weekend things were quick. I see no point in going to LAX anymore
Great, quick security check, away from the craziness of LAX and Jet Blue boards both end of the plane
The new terminal is BALLIN'! Awesome, non-chain gourmet food.. I like the smell of brand new ;)
Katrina EricksonJune 22, 2013Love the rebuild!!! It's so nice in here.. So much better than going through the security line outside!!
Alex MoskalyukApril 10, 2018Runway 25L is closed, when approaching, they require you now to tell them the specific runway you wanna land on
Arrive early and dine al fresco at 4th Street Vine. Great way to travel!!
- Bahjat ShariffSeptember 27, 2011Super quick security line. Quick curb to gate. Record time. Not a lot of food choices, but so well worth it.
No coffee shops except inside/past security. Just vending machine coffee. BYO!
Christopher JusticeOctober 21, 2011The bathrooms are outside of the gate area in the temporary JetBlue terminal. There are also two sets of bathrooms so if you see a line, walk around the back for more restrooms.
Stop by the sky lounge bar on the 2nd floor. Good beer.- Paul BinghamMarch 19, 2013New terminal is quite a change. Many power outlets and Fast wifi for waiting at the gates.
James CitronMarch 11, 2012While no Starbucks is here, there is one about a mile on Bellflower from the airport. Worth heading there as there is little food at the airport!
Shermick PetersNovember 11, 2011This is a small airport compared to LAX...very easy to get thru...weird boarding plane on the tarmack tho!!!
Kristen LallyDecember 26, 2012Awesome new terminal! Very cute airport and easy security! Baggage claim is a bit of a mess. Either way, it wins vs LAX.
Shannon RyanJanuary 17, 2013Oh and if you buy a book at the store here you can return it within 60 days and get fifty percent off!
Arlynn MuckeyMarch 1, 2013I never fly out of any other airport but here. Just renovated - love the place!
Sit at the picnic tables outside the airport...they're nice and it doesn't feel like you're being cow herded!- Love the new terminals. Nice open layout and lots of food.
Sam ChaninAugust 23, 2011Yes yes yes. The best way to fly to Cali. Can't get wet in the rain if your renting a car. It's literally right outside the door. Sam Chanin
Lily LMay 31, 2011Definitely a lot closer and quicker than LAX. Even if it was a holiday weekend, I don't think anyone will feel packed or as stuck as LAX.
Shannon FullerMay 29, 2012All the food is before security except a tiny kiosk with snacks and water/soda.
Tony CicolaDecember 16, 2011Yes it's quick to pass security n cheaper to fly BUT make sure to eat - don't expect a Starbucks - theres a cafe but expensive for little choices. Wouldn't want to spend an hour here waiting!
Queen 👑 JSeptember 25, 2014Its been a minute and they have revamped this joint. Im impressed with the terminals. Updated and fancym
Two cell phone lots, one by airport loop and one across Lakeview Blvd
- Josh KOctober 20, 2010when picking someone up, dont park in the short term but instead turn right into the private area just before the round about. the people don't check.
Make sure the person your picking up is there. The police will tell you move if you try to park.
Tony RonzoMay 1, 2011Smallest airport I've seen. I found a nice little wifi nook next to the cooler at gate 2... It took a little while for it to solidify the connection though...
Cole Martin TrainorJune 30, 2013Enjoy the birds who don't have any fear of being indoors ... Just don't let them enjoy your phoodz.
Best way to find <$100 round trip deals from San Francisco to LA is to fly JetBlue from SFO to Long Beach! Woot!
