Insider tip for MIA: Miami International Airport sees its busiest periods around 6:00–8:30 AM and 4:00–7:00 PM local time. If your flight times allow it, an off-peak visit will dramatically improve seating availability and shower wait times. Conversely, plan extra buffer if you're hoping to use shower suites during a tight connection.
