Landed in LAX at 925PM last night, was scheduled for 950pm-ish from FLL on VX. Ended up on the far far west remote pad. However, we didn't make it to the terminal (via bus) until 10:05PM. The bus drop-off gate entry is a minefield of cargo/baggage cannisters and baggage carts, the bus kept hitting the lips of the bag carts... I think it took us 5 minutes JUST to get from the driving lane to the front of the terminal (could have just walked it). Menzies is NOT doing Swissport (bus operator) any favors by making each bus driver feel like they have to drive thru an obstacle course.
