Hmm...while LAX isn't by any means fantastic like SIN/HKG/ICN, it's certainly functional. As my home airport, I find it to be perfectly acceptable and convenient.

I can walk off the plane at T7, go through CBP (especially nice w/ Global Entry) and be out on the sidewalk in a few minutes without having walked a few miles. I like the fresh ocean breeze that always greets me outside the terminal as I take a short bus to my car.

If I were transitting from a UA to UA flight, it would be a simple escalator ride upstairs to go through security for the departure. Unlike at ORD where there's a very long walk through a dark corridor and then a people mover ride around the airport complex - where I've missed every int'l-domestic connection until I signed up for Global Entry.

Is it fancy? No. Does it get its job done, yes.
