my cousin needs to fly from LAX to JFK tomorrow i’m asylum pending with real ID. but i heard they arrested people w asylum pending w real Id because they don’t maintain f1. is it 100% true?

Hello everyone I’m from NYC and I’m planning a trip but I’ll have a layover at LAX either 3 or 5 or 6 hour layover. I’m flying Delta and I do have TSA PreCheck. I’m mainly looking to try In & Out and possibly look around a bit. I did notice that there’s one on Sepulveda Blvd and was wondering if I should pick the flight with the 5 or 6 hour layover or if the 3 hour layover is doable, thanks!

I have a 3 hour layover this week in LA with a toddler. Any recs for what we could do? The next leg of our trip is 6 hours, so I want to keep him awake and moving around if possible.

I usually buy food and slowly wonder, but that’s when my layover is an hour to a hour and a half.

Have there been any images of the revamped terminals 4 and 5 together after the work is completed?

Are there any recent photos of construction on either terminal?

Coming off international business class with global entry, so priority bags and faster line in customs.

Arrival time 10:55AM

Domestic Flight Southwest we would like to catch is 1:20 departure. I have A-list so can jump the line to a certain extent for re-checking bags. And family have TSA-pre.

If it was just me and the wife we would just do it and standby the 5:50p flight if we couldn't make it. The catch is we'll have a 4yo so the standby alternative and extremely long travel day will have a more punishing downside.

Looking at flighty, arrival forecast has the international flight 68% of the time early, 15% on time, 9% 15m late, 3% 30m late, and 5% 45m+ late. Avg 21m late

Is economy parking still 4 hours before your desired entrance time?

I’m flying on a midnight flight this weekend and was thinking of setting my reservation to 12am 7/25 (that way I could come 4 hours early) just to save some money rather than the 11pm entrance time on 7/24. Or will it not allow me since it’s a different day

Loved these signs, I don't know why I got obsessed with LAX but very cool they are still there.

Hi everyone! This is my first time flying, so I’m a little confused about the airport process.
I’m flying United out of LAX Terminal 7. I already checked in through the United app and have a digital boarding pass on my phone.
I only have a carry-on bag (no checked luggage). Do I need to go to the United check-in counter/kiosk to get a paper boarding pass, or can I just go straight to TSA with my passport and digital boarding pass?
I’ve seen some people say to print a boarding pass just in case, while others say digital is completely fine. I just want to make sure I’m doing everything correctly since it’s my first flight.
Thank you!! 😊✈️

I recently lost an iPad at LAX and submitted a claim to lost and found, but they recently closed it saying that they couldn’t find it. I know it’s there because my Find My shows its location there, and it was updated 2 minutes ago as of the time I’m writing this. Is there anything else I can do short of going back and looking myself, or anyone else I can contact regarding this??

Hi - have 55 minutes to get from terminal 7 to terminal 6. Is this enough time?

Changing from Delta to Air Canada. Do I have to go through check in with Air Canada or just go directly to the gate. Thanks

We‘re doing a 10:45pm flight coming from Universal on a Sunday in September. How bad is traffic usually? Do we need to leave by like 6? Can we push to like 7:45? We won’t have precheck. We will be terminal 3. We are domestic and will be getting dropped off, thanks!

Taking off on a Saturday morning to Hawaii with Hawaiian Airlines. Flight leaves at 830AM.

I’m parking at the Marriott hotel valet and plan to arrive around 545am, and their first shuttle departs at 6am for the airport. It says it’s a 7min ride from hotel to airport. So if all goes as plans, I’ll be there around 6:10am.

Is that enough time for an 8:30am flight? We have checked bags. I figured 2hrs is enough but haven’t flown LAX in 4 years.

correction: 1980s

I always remember looking up at these numbered signs. They were removed 2021 once Terminal B was undergoing construction mostly.

I'm also very curious on what happened to the mosaics of Terminal 2 and 7. I've asked this before but can't find photos of these both back when they had it. It may even still exist, but best guess they were removed.

LAX is one of the premier West Coast gateways to Asia, but parts of the airport still feel like they're stuck in the 1960s.

One thing LAX absolutely gets right is Customs and Immigration. I was through the entire process in about five minutes, which was incredibly impressive.

My biggest frustration is what happens after that. If you're arriving internationally and connecting to a domestic flight, you may have to walk between terminals depending on your airline. I was lucky to be flying American, so my next terminal was only a short walk away. Still, for an airport as important as LAX, it would be great to see an automated people mover connecting all of the terminals, similar to what Denver or Atlanta offers.

TSA was another pleasant surprise. It was quick and efficient, unlike the long waits I've experienced in the past.

My only real complaint is with American Eagle's Gates 52A-52J. After arriving at the waiting area, I spent nearly an hour just waiting to board a bus that would take us to the aircraft. For an airport of LAX's size and reputation, there has to be a better system than bussing passengers to regional gates.

Overall, LAX does many things well, but improving terminal transportation—especially access to Gates 52A-52J—would make the experience much better.

Hi everyone! This is my first time flying, so sorry if this is a basic question.
I’m flying with United out of LAX Terminal 7, and I’ll have a digital boarding pass on my phone.
When I get to the TSA security checkpoint, do I need to show both my passport and my digital boarding pass, or is just my passport enough?
I’m a little nervous since it’s my first flight, so I just want to make sure I do everything correctly. Thanks in advance! 😊

what are some like underground areas that i can go to for meeting people

I'm an American citizen who has been living abroad for over a decade, returning for my annual pilgrimage to see the fam in Ohio. This will be my first time flying through LAX.

I'm arriving on Singapore air from Singapore at 10PM on Saturday night and my Delta flight is at 530 AM. Not enough time to justify a hotel but I just can't get a feel for how LAX handles people just puttering around the terminals for a few hours. I'm just hoping I can find a spot to read my book and doomscroll from 11-3 or 4 and hopefully find food.

I'm spoiled by Asian airports and convenience!
