wow. I flew out of LAX on Friday around 11 am, there was no security line! What a difference a day makes!
Iknow that they were working on the escalator (the one that goes from ticketing to the gates level, // to the ring road in T7), but it did not seem to make a difference, on Friday at least.

CX flights tend to be at the left hand side of Tom Bradley. CX agents themselves tell people to go the aircraft at least 2 hours prior... A solution.... try using the right security check. There are less people going there.

Any idea how HP (America West) out of 1 will be early (7am) on a Friday morning?

HP out of terminal 1 at 7:00 AM should be the pits, remember that they share the terminal with WN. Take your sleeping bag and go the night before!

The lines have been pretty short at T1 since new machines were installed around Thanksgiving. Friday (and probably Sunday) are the worst, but I doubt you'll have to wait more than 10 to 20 minutes at T1.

The problem at LAX is the Bradley International Terminal (between AA T3 and T4)
Everyone and their luggage entering the terminal must go through security causing lines up to 3 hours long. The other terminals at LAX have the normal waits by the security checkpoints(5-20 minutes)and a little longer line to check in your luggage.
