About Terminal 2

Terminal 2 shares a consolidated checkpoint with Terminal 3, cleared on Terminal 3's level 3, and a passenger screened there can walk airside straight into either building without a second checkpoint. Delta Air Lines is the largest tenant, alongside Aeromexico, WestJet and Virgin Atlantic; Spirit Airlines relocated its LAX gates here after Terminal 5 shut down for reconstruction in October 2025. Terminal 2's own footprint is mostly check-in and ticketing, with its gate concourse functioning as an extension of the shared 2/3 complex rather than a standalone building. That shared checkpoint means queue length here depends as much on Terminal 3's departure bank as on Terminal 2's own.
