Southwest Airlines Terminal 7

Nothing against Southwest but this terminal is just not good. Hardly any food options! I need to eat. Two things I need in my life are sleep and food! There’s 2 Starbucks, a bakery, and a CPK. That’s about it folks

Definitely not enough seating in this Terminal.

They need more plug ins (AC outlet) for charging phones and using computers. The charging bases they have are nice but really cramped and if someone wanted to pilfer another person’s phone it would be really easy to do.
They need to invest in a better air conditioning system because it was really hot, REALLY HOT. I understand that cold air will be let out due to the Tarmac thing or whatever you call the long walk way from the terminal to the plane. Here is a novel idea to remedy that problem. Look up «Mars Air Doors». They hold cold air in and keep hot air out. 7 – 11 convenient stores has them when you walk in and out of their doors.
Another problem at this terminal is lack of seating. I had to stand for a really long time because there was an influx of people due to 1 airplane had too much fuel so all of those passengers where loitering around the terminal plus the normal amount of people waiting to board their planes. It was a zoo.
All across America airports charge so much for food and beverages too. Why so much money? Then they have duty free stores which is kind of odd that they would be slapping themselves on the back like «hey look at this bargain here @ the airport». Then turn around and buy a sandwich that costs around $ 12. Absolutely insane. Oh well. That sums it up. Start sharpening your pencil terminal 7 whydontcha?!

This has nothing to do with the excellent service of southwest but in regards to the terminal. Very limited seating and outlets. Limited food options. I believe this terminal is under construction so hopefully these issues will be resolved.

I guess having worked at LAX for a short stint, I find Southwest Airlines pretty easy to navigate and I’ve never had a bad experience. I usually pack a few snacks so limited food choices aren’t such a big deal as long as they have a Starbucks – which they do.
Overall, the free 2 check-​ins/​2 carry-​on options are a huge selling point for me. Each check-​in bag can weigh up to 50 lbs. before they charge you and even then, they give you the opportunity to transfer some of that weight into your carry-​ons. For those of us who bring back oodles of goodies back home, this is a great carrier for the price.

Starbucks as soon as you get off the plane and charging stolons. I was impressed by the connectivity at Terminal 7. Even the coffee station had charging stations. I’m a fan and look forward to going back to Southwest Airlines Terminal 7.

I always use Southwest when I can for several reasons, but this particular terminal in LA is not good at all. Food selections are a disgrace considering the crowd. I usually have to run down to a vending machine to get anything because the lines are too long. Seating is also terrible. People standing in the middle of walkways, sitting on the floor, all because of inadequate seating. All of this said, I don’t have other options as far as airlines that would make me give up Southwest, so I will return.

Not business friendly. Almost no electrical outlets. Few are all taken. Crowded, understaffed counters, under construction. Worse than hanging out at inner city bus station.
