Finally, the 4th page is a "wrap-up," peaceful hotel rooms downtown detroit called "LAX FAQs," covering questions readers have wanted peaceful hotel rooms downtown detroit to know... miscellaneous items of interest not covered on the other three pages.
The Los Angeles International Airport has many good features. Compared to other big city airports, the layout is quite compact. There are 9 terminal buildings...each peaceful hotel rooms downtown detroit one small enough that you won't get lost or have a hard time finding anything inside them. The 9 buildings are all close together, joined by a wide, horseshoe-shaped, pedestrian-friendly sidewalk. Once again, it's impossible to get lost because you can see all the buildings in one glance.
Just like the horseshoe shaped sidewalks, there are horseshoe-shaped roads that drive by the terminal buildings. Arrivals are on the lower, ground level, and departures are on the upper level. If you use the correct peaceful hotel rooms downtown detroit level to arrive at LAX Airport, then you'll be merely steps from your check-in desk when you get out at the curb. If no one's dropping you off, you can park in a garage directly across the street from where you need to go...and it's still easy.
There's no trouble whatsoever when you land at Los Angeles International Airport, either. After landing, you simply head to the lower level of your terminal, pick up your baggage, and grab a taxi...or go to your car in the nearby peaceful hotel rooms downtown detroit parking lot. You drive away---and that's it. You're not dependent on trams or shuttles to go from one building to the other...like at Denver, for example...where you must land, take a shuttle to the main building, and THEN hunt amongst dozens of baggage carousels serving all airport arrivals. Since there are 9 terminals at LAX Airport...each of them having baggage carousels for ONLY that one building, it's so easy to find the carousel peaceful hotel rooms downtown detroit that YOU need.
Plus, when you arrive peaceful hotel rooms downtown detroit or leave Los Angeles International Airport, the scenery is great as you zoom into the sky! LAX Airport Los Angeles peaceful hotel rooms downtown detroit is located RIGHT NEXT TO THE BEACH! Your view of it during landing will be spectacular. (In several peaceful hotel rooms downtown detroit photos on this page, you're enjoying a view of beautiful Dockweiler Beach...which lies directly at the end of the LAX Airport runways!) If you fly up or down the coastline towards your destination, you'll continue to enjoy spectacular Pacific Ocean views. Or, if your plane veers around and head inland, you'll fly directly over Los Angeles, instead. If you fly over the city, you'll have the thrill of picking out all the famous landmarks...the Hollywood Sign, the Griffith Park Observatory, Santa Monica Pier with its ferris wheel and rides (which have been used as filming locations for many movies and television shows!)
No, the LAX airport itself is not a problem. However, that doesn't mean that there aren't problems! And the problems center around 2 areas: long lines of traffic driving into the airport, and long lines at the security screening points.
GETTING INTO the airport campus is a BIG problem! The line of cars waiting to get into the airport often takes a half hour to maneuver... and that's if you're LUCKY. I've driven to LAX many times, and tried the several different routes that exist to get there...and the traffic problem is still bad. Unfortunately, that's because the of the convenient horseshoe shape of the buildings. Yes, the "horseshoe" is convenient; VERY convenient...once you're ALREADY THERE! But, that terrific one-way flow of traffic through the horseshoe means that everybody...no matter from which direction they enter the Los Angeles International Airport...has to enter the actual horseshoe at the same ONE POINT. The back-up to get in at that point is what causes the tie-ups and traffic jams.
Another thing about LAX Airport, Los Angeles, that can be long and exasperating is the length of the lines for the security screening area. At some busy times, the lines can go out the door of the terminals and snake down the sidewalk! One time when I flew out of LAX, that's what happened to me...I was stuck waiting 'way out on the sidewalk---and I was afraid that I'd miss my flight! (I didn't.)
Of course, long lines for the security screening happen in EVERY airport these days. LAX Airport certainly isn't the ONLY large-city airport with this same problem! The sheer numbers peaceful hotel rooms downtown detroit of people flying through Los Angeles International Airport cause the lines to be longer here, though, than at smaller, regional airports. (What's the best way to avoid long security lines at LAX...or at any airport, for that matter? peaceful hotel rooms downtown detroit Book your flights for unpopular times of departure: late nights, Saturday afternoons and evenings, and Sundays. Why? Because weekday mornings are busy with business travelers; Saturday mornings are crowded with pleasure-flyers. Mornings are the worst time for lines at LAX Airport's security screening stations.)
If you never bothered to show up 2-3 hours early for your flight at your own home airport (because it wasn't really necessary) DON'T assume that coming early to LAX Airport Los Angeles is optional. It isn't! peaceful hotel rooms downtown detroit It's a MUST! Mainly because peaceful hotel rooms downtown detroit of these lines, I now try to fly in and out of one of the smaller airports in Southern California. peaceful hotel rooms downtown detroit It saves time and frustration.
Nevertheless, peaceful hotel rooms downtown detroit I really do LOVE LAX. I can still remember LAX when it was brand new. I took my first flight from LAX as a child in 1962. There was no multi-story parking structure in the middle of the horseshoe back then. Can you believe that there was a time in LAX history when a flat, asphalt slab parking lot was quite adequate to handle all the cars parked at Los Angeles peaceful hotel rooms downtown detroit International Airport!
Even though my best advice these days is for you to use a smaller airport, such as John Wayne in Orange County, Bob Hope Airport in Burbank, or the Long Beach Airport, there are times when LAX is still the best place to go. For international flights, no airport in the region can beat the LAX airport of Los Angeles for its sheer scope and variety of carriers, destinations and schedules! Even for domestic flights, LAX offers you more carriers than the smaller airports around the area. Plus, if you're ultimate destination is in western Los Angeles (Malibu, Santa Monica, Venice, Century City, the South Bay Cities, for example), LAX is simply the very closest airport for you to use.
