Security at LAX
 
Hi All,

Would anyone be able to tell me what the check-in procedure is like at LAX? I heard that the line up is extremely long. I'm actually connecting from MCO/DEN/LAX/AKL and would like to know how much time I should allocate for the check-in procedure at LAX.

Thanks for reading.

Depends on time and terminal. What airline are you flying? Checking bags or carrying them? Lots of variables to determine.

I'm flying UA from MCO/DEN/LAX then NZ for LAZ/AKL. Will have 4 big bags & hand luggage. Do you know if the bags can be tagged from MCO, if so then I dont have to go through the security checks in LAX which I have been told it's usually a long line up let alone I"m traveling in the evening and there are 3 NZ flights to AKL around that time.

Thanks.

If you are codesharing UA to Air New Zealand then your bags should be checked thru I would think. You will catch the Shuttle over to terminal two and go through security again. I would allow an Hour or so at least if you already have your boarding passes.
