I checked: The World Famous Flo's Airport Cafe will be open on Sunday, 1 January 2017!

They'll modify their hours: Flo's will be open 7:00 AM to 3:00 PM on Sunday, 1 January 2017. The normal hours are 5:30 AM to 7:00 PM so we might have a few minutes to kill but not enough to change our plans.

Southern California gourmand's should be aware that Flo's will close for Christmas. Flo's Airport Cafe will close 3:00 PM on Christmas Eve and stay closed until the day after Christmas (at 5:30 AM).
