Killing time during LAX layover...(USA travel virgin)
Hi,
I've had a bit of a look at some threads on how horrible LAX can be, and am wondering what I can do with my massive layover next week...
I arrive at 07:20 on QF093 and then have an AA code share (QF3203) at 14:20 from T4. That's almost a whole day stuck in a nasty sounding airport...
I spose my question is, although I have QP and therefore access to the AC, I will need to check in my back with AA before entering the lounge won't I?
Therefore my questions are
1. What time would a US domestic check-in open?
2. If check-in is only an hour or so before the flight, what can I do given that I will have baggage to schlep around the airport
3. When should I look at going to the AC
4. Is it worth getting a locker for a few hours if I have to carry my bag around whilst waiting for check-in to open?
As I don't have any FF status, and am travelling Y it sounds like I get the joy of the long customs lines and then the long security lines as well... that should fill in a few hours of my layover :shock:
I must say that I've found a lot of useful information on here, however part of me wonders if I won't be spending the 7 hours crying in the corner somewhere after getting 'welcomed' by the lovely people at CBP...
Any suggestions/thoughts would be greatly appreciated!
