AA- last on time

We are trying for an AA route DFW-CLT-SXM this year. Last year we did DFW-MIA-SXM and AA changed the times on us too. It actually helped me be able to book SBC, but would've been pretty irritating had I already booked the connecting flight.
 
American just changed our flight down from Philadelphia in November so we now have a very tight connection in San Juan...
gotta love the carry on!!!
 
Just got an email 2 days ago that AA changed our times from PHL to SXM in February. 30 minutes earlier- no problem. At least they let me know in plenty of time. Now if only this new time holds. :pray1:
 
Mike R has a secret route that always gets him to Le Select by noon. Time travel? Better travel karma? :pray1::cool:

And once again you twist my words .....on the island for lunch is what I said we do.......which means usually a little after 1..... not 12......never said noon .....and it's very easy to do on a jet blue non stop and no checked bags

I m doing AA in November which gets me in at night in SXM ....NOT IMPRESSED ......the choices suck lately .....

and it's not nice to mock people who are on a budget.......they generally don't appreciate it:wink2:

It seems to me you would get there the same time even with checked bags. I don't think carryon has any more magic to it except less underwear change. :evil:

It no big deal so don't make it one.
 
You re right It's no big deal and I'm not making it one ....

its only a big deal when you re bags don't make it to the island or you miss your connection due to long lines :cool:

That hasn't happened to me in 40 years going to SXM or 15 in SBH. Has it happened to you?
 
BOTH have before I became enlightened LOL

and there have been quite a few posts on here through the years describing that happening as well ..

do a google search on how lost bags are increasing and worse yet stuff is being taken out of checked bags while inspecting
 
I have nothing but clothes to take in my checked bags . Anyone who puts valuable items in checked bags doesn't travel a lot.

I don't see how an adult can pack enough clothes into a knapsack to last a week.
 
I have learned from my grandsons the term for this...GOING COMMANDO.

It's great being grandma.
 
Plenty of underwear.....but you really need a good modern backpack ...they are amazing in their ability to carry so much stuff....it's really very easy....of course i don't wear long pants or fancy shoes etc .......but I get plenty of shorts T shirts, collared shirts, underwear, toiletries etc in my Northface backpack


oh and they stopped calling them knapsacks in the 90s...LOL
