When checking in your bag at SJ, make sure the tags show LAX & Shanghai APs (SHA or PVG) so they will be automatically transferred to your next flight. However, on your return you need to get your bags, go through customs clearance and recheck-in your bag before proceeding to SJ.

SW is at T1, Delta at T5. After arrival, board LAX bus Route A outside on the isle and marked 'LAX shuttle airline connection' which makes its run from T1 to T2, T3, TBIT, T4, T5 - 5 stops.It runs every 12-15 mins and will take at most 15 mins.

I suppose she arrives at Terminal 2. - 1. Your best bet: If you pick up an arriving passenger, use the free Cell Phone Lot, now at the intersection of 96th Street & Vicksburg Avenue in Westchester, and adjacent to the southwest corner of Economy Lot C, and is a quarter of a mile from the 96th Street Bridge entrance into the passenger terminal complex--stay with your car until your party has picked up luggage and calls you to be picked up at the curb. 2. OR: park in the short-term lot and meet her in the baggage claim area (look at the overhead screen for flight listing).

Arriving at TBIT (Bradley) and connecting flight on Frontier, which is in Terminal 4: 1. International arrivals are required to clear customs, which means you have to pick up your bag from baggage claim, then pass through customs first. Outside customs, you can recheck your bags with most carriers, and your bags should already be pre-tagged (at your initial airport) to go to the final destination. 2. T4 is to the right as you exit TBIT - you may walk or use the LAX bus Route A on lower arrival level island in front of each terminal, under sign 'LAX shuttle airline connection', which runs every 12-15 mins

Glad to be of service: first open www.ifly.com - under "Airport Search" type into the 'Find an Airport' the LAX Code for the Los Angeles Airport. To the left, click 'Terminal Maps' which will show you the layout of each of the 9 terminals.

This page will show you the basic layout of the terminals (U-shape - with TBIT at the bottom. Scroll further down and you will see descriptions of each of those terminals. Upon your Arrivals: if you arrive from outside the country, you need to go through the TSA clearance first. Otherwise, you proceed from your gate to the baggage claim level, which is clearly marked, where you pick up your checked bag on one of the carousels (check the screen for your flight number), if you have one. You can either meet your party there (after they parked in the short-term garage across from the terminal) or have them park in the free Cell Phone Lot (click at LAX Airport Parking for details). I also urge you to click on 'Traveler Tips' on top center, and open "First Time Flyer" which should answer your basic questions. Have a wonderful time.

While LAX maps only show airline lounges in the international terminal, most of which serve a number of airlines belonging to a group, Virgin Atlantic (Terminal 2, tel. 800-862-8621) or Virgin America (Terminal 3 - tel. 877-359-8474) may get you specifics.
