The Scene – Thirteen miles from downtown Los Angeles, the Burbank-Glendale-Pasadena Airport regally bears the stains and scars of its 70-plus years. Closer than LAX to downtown, Hollywood and all of the other San Fernando Valley attractions, the Burbank Airport is a convenient gateway in and out of the L.A. area. – – Facts – Five million passengers use the airport each year, and in order to facilitate their famous ease of use, the Airport Authority has proposed increasing the terminal from 170,000 to 250,000 square feet. The 14 aircraft gates would remain, but…

pretty good
by casualcat at Citysearch
this is a pretty good airport. i highly recommend flying into here if you are visitng an area near the valley, there's no point to fly the LAX but sometimes it can be cheaper since it is a bigger airport.

My favorite airport
by rnamath at Citysearch
This airport is my favorite from all the ones I have used in the world. It is so convenient to get in and out. I just wish there were more airlines. I wish the city would let it expand. The noise is not as bad as the city says. I would like ti use the airport to fly nonstop to cites like Washington DC and Boston.
- Pros: very convenient and user friendly
- Cons: needs more destinations

Better than LA

I fly to see my girlfriend a couple times a month, and she flies down here when I'm not flying up north to see her. Burbank Airport is five minutes from my house, and I like to park at their lots for $12 a day when I don't get a lift or take a taxi. It's a small airport, to be sure, but with that limited size comes speed and convinience you don't get in more major airports. You plane and deplane on a tarmac, from both the front and rear on movable stairways. This gives a feeling of something akin to arriving in a small airport on some island somewhere. I've made it through security in less than 10 minutes most times, except Monday mornings when I've noticed it's the craziest.
- Pros: small easy airport
- Cons: valet is expensive
