There have been numerous complaints about the main airport in Los Angeles for both the airlines and car rental companies, thus I am never using LAX again, so I will be Ex-LAX.

I guess you're taking over where Joan Rivers left off.

It is a bad name to begin with. LAX, which by definition, is not what you want to call a business. So to make it more modern I would suggest using letters like the kids today and rename it LOL or WTF.

I can't think of a better new name for LAX than WTF. I find myself thinking that every time I go through there.

DONT make SNAp judgments or BURy your head in the SANd over this. There's always Long Beach.

I think Gardyloo has been one too many flights to SoCal.

Gardyloo, don't spill the beans about LGB...!! Once everyone discovers our little hometown gem of an airport, the paradise of quick TSA lines, lovely outdoor waiting areas, inexpensive dining options (and a wine bar!) and quick plane loading will be a faded memory!

LAX has always been tough, but what do you expect? They let a full-blown city grow and completely surround an incredibly busy international airport, preventing necessary facility expansion. It's going to take some time to figure out what can make LAX work.

I'd start with the horrible TSA lines...!

Please note RJW, that for the rest of the country LGB means a group of people fighting for equal rights.

Win to Gardyloo.

Let me know when they start transatlantic/transpacific service from the old Douglas Aircraft runway.

Dukey, they are readying the Spruce Goose now just for that eventuality.

HUSH RJW.

I haven't been through TBIT post-remodel which seems to be getting mostly positive reviews.

The biggest problem with LAX is that it has multiple terminals that are not connected. If you are flying without connections, and use SuperShuttle, taxi or even "gasp" public transport to get to the initial hotel it is much less difficult. I always advise friends to look into booking any car rental from a city location, if possible.

FYI: The Burbank Amtrak station is directly across the street from the main entrance to the Burbank airport. There is a commuter rail line in addition to Amtrak that uses this station.
The Amtrak Pacific Surfliner goes to Los Angeles Union Station.
Cars can be rented at LAUS.
There is also a shuttle service from the train station (LAUS) to the L:AX airport

Just keep those jokes coming.

I think Tom had an affair with a caboose many years ago and has not gotten over it.

OMG. WTF. LMAO. ROTFLMAO. LOL. HCKO. IMO. IMHO. ETC
