LONG BEACH AIRPORT review : 10 March

This is such a convenient airport. Reminds me of a small mid-west airport where you park
close by, check in, and at the gate so quickly. While not a lot of fancy amenities like the
larger international airports, this airport is such a breeze.

It is simply an airport and not trying to be a shopping mall or anything else. Very quick passage
through the airport if you're only dropping off bags; TSA efficient but thorough; bit of a crowd in
the north portakabin as JetBlue, DL and AS had simultaneous departures, but as you can turn up so
close to departure it's not a long wait. Restaurant upstairs is good as well, though not cheap, and
it would be good to have more of the balcony given to non-eaters (maybe it's busier midweek than on
a Sunday afternoon).
Long Beach Airport by W Donovan

Long Beach is a great little airport. It has the most efficient TSA
checkpoint I have ever seen with the longest line ever being about three
minutes, and I fly through here quite often. While the south concourse
is the only gate area I have used, I am sure the airport is the same
throughout the terminal. The staff is great and friendly and you can
chat with everyone. The gate numbering can be a bit confusing, but so
long as you don't immediately exit the terminal to the left, you should
be fine. They even give you an umbrella when it rains to walk onto the
plane.

I'm not entirely sure you can call LGB an "airport". It's sort of like
a few runways with some temporary-cum-permanent trailers (aka "gates")
parked on the side, strung together by covered chain-link fencing mazes
for crowd control. All of that having been said, it's enormously better
than LAX, and JetBlue does what it can to make your (hopefully) short
wait at LGB pleasant (free wireless Internet is a nice little perk). My
only suggestion would be to bring an umbrella... There are no airwalks
from the plane to the gate, just a stairway down to the tarmac. In the
occasional event of rain in Long Beach, it helps on the short jaunt from
the plane to the "gate/terminal".
