  • T4 to T3 in 1hr 15m?
    Feb 23, 2012
    1
    I'm flying into LAX via American (T4) and flying out via Alaskan (T3). I've got a 1hr 15m layover and I won't be checking any baggage. Since it looks like I need to pass through security again, how much time should I expect to spend moving from T4 to T3? For what it's worth, I'm seated near the front of the plane on my arrival flight.

     

    It is best to walk between T4, (pass the Bradley Terminal) to T3 - it should take you no more than 7 mins. (The bus goes counter-clockwise). Yes, you need to go through security again. If at morning rush hr prior to 9am, lines can, at times, take up to an hour, in general it's much faster.

     

  • Landing for Huntington, WVA to Orlando

    We landed Sat morning from Huntington and have 40 min to make our connection to Orlando. My husband has an injured foot and can not walk fast. Will we be able to make our connection. Was not sure how far we would have to walk?

     

    Huntington Airport is offering free wheelchairs (tel. 304) 453 6165)- you should contact your Airline to have a wheelchair ready at Orlando.

  • travel between terminals?

    On April 5, flying in from Syracuse, NY on CO4815, arriving at 7:00 PM and leaving for Madrid, Spain on CO62 at 8:40 PM. Which terminal do we arrive in, which do we leave from, and how do we get from one to the other?

     

    Depends on which Airport you arrive/depart from JFK or EWR? However, 100 mins for transfer will be enough.

  • manchester,uk to quincy,il

    We will fly into chicago and then st.louis and then take cape air to Quincy,il do we go to another terminal or what to catch flight also do we have to pick up our bags before going onto quincy

     

    At Manchester make sure your bags will have all 3 airport codes on the tag. Not sure whether your airline to Chicago will transfer your bags to Cape Air (find out - otherwise you need to collect your bags at St. Louis Lambert Airport and check them in with Cape Air). 2. As an international arrival at ORD O'Hare Airport, you need to go through passport check, retrieve checked bags, go through customs clearance and - if transferring to another flight - re-check-in bag - count on at least 35-45 mins for this. Thereafter, proceed up one level to the Airport Transit System where you can easily connect to either terminals 1, 2 or 3 for domestic flights. A free shuttle train running every few minutes can take you there. The International Terminal is Terminal 5. Open www.ifly.com/ord and click on "Terminal Map" - under the map is detailed description of all terminals & how to connect. Look at your ticket for gate numbers. This site will also give you transfer advice. For St. Louis Airport details, open www.ifly.com/stl

     

  • Connection time between Concourse A & D
    Feb 22, 2012

    I'm considering booking a domestic flight with Virgin America that arrives at concourse A at 7:30pm then taking a flight out with Alaska Air that leaves at 8:20pm from Concourse D (it will be a on a Saturday night). Will I have enough time to connect if I have bags to collect and transfer to Alaska Air?

     

    That depends on which Airport you arrive at (and at which terminal).

     

  • Lack of wifi

    At my first experience at Houston airport I was shocked at the lack of free, airport-wide wifi access like at the Seattle airport. People huddled around the United Club entrance was a disgrace. I didn't realize Houston International was really a third-world airport.

     

  • Duty Free

    Can you take duty free from one terminal to other at O'Hare without going thru security.

     

    Tell the checkout counter that you need to transfer to another terminal - the separate bag for your purchase should be properly marked.

    What would be the fastest way to get from terminal 1 to terminal 6?

     

    Which Airport? If LAX, you could walk from T1 to T6 (on opposite sides of the parking garages; however, it's not a straight line. Otherwise you would need to take 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. Your next stops would be T2, T3, TBIT, T4, T5, T6 - 6 stops or 15 mins.

    There is absolutely nothing to eat in terminal C if you aren't 300lbs-nothing healthy, no good coffee, just sugary fried junk everywhere. will opt to starve instead. Is it so hard to put in just one reasonable place?

  • Never again at LGB
    Mar 28, 2012

    I'm flying out to LGB to SFO in order to catch another flight and be gone for 10 days. I had no idea that there is no off-airport parking available, or that the airport's long-term parking rates skyrocketed to $17 a day. The parking now costs almost as much as my round-trip flight to SFO. I'm now working on rebooking the flight even if it means losing the money I put into my flight. There isn't the slightest chance I'll use the inconvenient LGB.

     

    LGB needs to listen to their customer's complaints regarding parking fees. Their site is lgb.org. We are getting frequently parking fee complaints for LGB.

     

    You can find cheaper offsite parking at sites like longtermparking.com I used this site to get a coupon to park at the San Jose Airport and it cost close to 65% less than paying the airport's lot. I hate how much parking rates are at hotels and airports.

    There needs to be more signs to direct people to the airport on the highways and streets,etc. There is one sign and then you're on you're own for quite awhile until you see one more sign. In Columbus, Oh they have an "Airport" on every sign as you drive along the interstate until you get right into the airport-- no getting lost there!!! It is wonderful.
