  • Catching qatar flight

    I have to travel from atlanta and catch qatar flight ar 11pm.can somebody guide me asto how to checking my luggage at iad

     

    So you're buying two separate tickets? It's quite simple, you book a flight that is scheduled to get into IAD before 8:30 PM, then when you arrive, go to the baggage claim in the main terminal, then when you get your baggage, take it upstairs to the departure level and the Qatar Airlines counter.

     

  • Beirut to chocago through FCO connection

    hi. will be using alitalia to travel from beirut to chicago. both arrival and departure should be in terminal 3. I am not sure if will need to go through T5 or not. should be able to get both boarding pass from beirut and the lugguage should be sent to chicage strainght. thx

     

    Only US airlines use T5 in FCO. Alitalia flights to the US use terminal 3.

     

    How easy is it to connect from the main terminal 3 to the G gate. Do I need to walk, taka a us or what

     

  • 37 minutes enough??

    So my flight itinerary is SFO-IAH-OMA. The layover in IAH is only 37 minutes. I have conflicting terminal locations for the arrival into IAH (it is either C or E) and I believe I depart from terminal B. How long does it take to get from Terminal C to Terminal B? How long does it take to get from Terminal E to Terminal B? Will I be able to make both situation?

     

    United mainline flights into IAH can arrive into C or E, so you won't know until the day of your flight. C or E to B can take anywhere from 5 to 20 minutes on the TerminaLink train, depending on where in C/E your arriving gate is and how close it is to the TerminaLink station.

     

    I need to make my way from E4 to B85 in 37 minutes at IAH. is that enough time to make it?

     

    If your first flight is on-time it's possible, but hurry.

     

    thanks! the plane actually landed about 7 minutes early so i got out when we were supposed to land. still had to hurry to the terminal, but made the flight! =)

     

  • Time to transit from T5 on a Wednesday a

    ba297 is always late at least 30 - 40 minutes giving us only am hour and 20 or 20 minutes to make our flight connection in T3' is this doable On a Wednesdat around 6:30 pm?

     

    I see most days BA297 doesn't get in until 6:30 or later, so I think it's very unlikely you'll be able to make a 6:30 PM AA connection. If there's a later flight to your destination you'll be rebooked on that.

     

    We have the exact same scenario. We have an 8:05 connection after arriving on BA297. We are US citizens. So, can we make it to terminal 3 with a 6:30 arrival giving us a hour and 35 minutes to make an AA flight on a Wednesday?

     

  • How much time between airlines at T5

    I will be arriving at 6:55am into T5 via Hawaiian airlines with a connecting flight on JetBlue that departs at 7:40am from T5. Will I have enough time to make the connecting flight? Would also help to know what terminal Hawaiian flies into.

     

    Both Hawaiian and JetBlue use T5 at JFK. You will have enough time if your first flight is on-time.

    We will arrive at IAH from BHM on United. Our flight to CLL leaves 35 minutes later. Do we have a chance? We have good running shoes.

     

    Yes, you have a chance but it will be tough unless your first flight is quite early. You will likely have to take the TerminaLink train from B to A-north.

     

    Thanks for the reply! We will hope for the best. :) I have often flown out of IAH, but this will be the first time I've visited witha connecting flight.

    Flight 6126 to Ohara, arrival 1818, terminal 1 connecting to flight 1633 at 1824,, terminal 5. Will I make my connection?

     

    What airline(s)? No United flights depart from Terminal 5, however, I wouldn't plan on making any connection in 6 minutes. Do you have your times correct?

    At O'Hare Airport, on arrival at Terminal 1, follow signs to the free ATS shuttle train running every few minutes in the unsecured areas of the terminals - meaning that on arrival at Terminal 5 you need to go through security check before proceeding to your connecting gate (M gate). You may need about 25 mins from gate to gate.

     

  • Connection Orlando-DTW-Amsterdam 50min

    I would like to book flight and there's an offer from Air France: Orlando-Detroit-Amsterdam-StPetersburg. Delta-Delta-Klm Is it possible to pass international passport control in 50 minutes? Flight from Orlando arrives at 18:43 and flight to Amsterdam departs at 19:40.

     

    There will be no international passport control in Detroit on that Itinerary. Orlando-Detroit is domestic. You could make that connection.

     

  • Worried about Transferring

    I am arriving from Charlotte NC on flight 1578 and will have 2 hours to connect with Flight 742 to Spain. Will I have to pass through security again? What terminals will I arrive on and depart from? Thanks!

     

    No, you won't have to go through security on the way to Spain and CLT only has one terminal.

     

    Sorry, thought you were connecting in CLT. The answer about security is still the same and your flight will probably arrive in B and depart from A - which are connected.

    I will be arriving at BOS via Delta then flying to MVY via CapeAir. Will 1hr 4min be enough time for my connection?

     

    That will be really tough. You will arrive in Terminal A and depart from Terminal C, which are not directly connected, and you will have to go through security again.

     

  • have to re check luggage?

    Flying into PHL on US Airways, then on to NWR with US Airways Express - will we have to claim and then re-check in our luggage or will it transfer direct?

     

    If your first flight is domestic you won't have to do anything with your baggage. If the first flight is international you will claim it in immigration then re-check it after customs.

    Hi, never used Philadelphia before, will be flying in on US Express from La Guardia and have an hour to find US airways to Manchester England - is this do-able?!

     

    It's doable but you will have to hurry. You have to take a shuttle from the F-gates.

     

  • WHERE ARE JET BLUE INTERNATIONAL GATE AR

    Hi what gate do I meet passengers clering customs from a Jet Blue flight

     

    You are not allowed to enter the post-security areas, including gates. Meet at FLL's Arrivals Hall, which has on each end Concourses E & F - your passenger arrives at Concourse F. Best place to meet: in front of the information counter there.
