Pros: Freedom of roaming, stretch, relax, or just enjoy the beautiful scenery. Cons: Some passenger didn't know they can check in baggage. Also, I was not aware about bus transfer and that train checked in baggage are automatically transferred to the bus. The bus stop at Burbank Airport does not have any shelter not signs nor markings, nor parking, not user friendly. My brother kept driving around the airport trying to find this illusive bus stop. It was also raining and no shelter. Tips: Read my above What could be improve? comments.
