Flight from Buffalo to Los Angeles

TeresaFlew with Delta-Sep 2026

get to JFK early! TSA precheck helped but the security lines are always a mess!

jessieFlew with JetBlue-Jul 2026

Take a direct flight. Its faster and less hassle.

Verified travelerFlew with American Airlines-Jan 2025

Be there on time it really need two hours for security checkups

Verified travelerFlew with Qantas Airways-Nov 2024

there was an instance where a non speaking couple didnt know when to board. people cut in front of them and the crew didnt respond. it would be nice if there were translators available to assist when needed. i get that you want people on board as quickly as possible. sometimes, it's like herding cats. but do assist the people who dont understand the language.

LaurenFlew with JetBlue-Dec 2023

Be very careful that you don’t misplace anything. If you have to go through TSA multiple times, be sure to retrieve ALL your things even if it means you have to hold up the line unfortunately. Otherwise, there will be zero help to retrieve your things afterwards even though there are so many cameras.
