We are flying Detroit to LA and then on to Honolulu. We have a 1 hr and 38 minute layover which should be fine unless we get delayed somehow. In winter anything is possible. I see that Delta operates out of two terminals in LA. Terminals 2 and 3. Do you experienced flyers think that it is likely that we will arrive and depart from the same terminal? I am hoping that will be the case.

Also, when searching for flights how much of a layover time do you tend to look for? I (not being a frequent flyer) am more comfortable with about a 2 hr layover. But on the other hand I don't want to be sitting around the airport for hours on end either.
