DFS Los Angeles International Airport — Local services in Los Angeles

I followed the signs toward what was supposed to be a food court area, only to feel like I was walking forever, easily over a mile, before I even got close. When I finally arrived, the options were surprisingly limited, the lines were long, and every seat was taken. Some spots even had hour-long waits, which just isn’t practical for travelers on layovers.
