50 mins connection at SAL - Doable?
I am considering a few destinations for Thanksgiving week and Argentina is one of them. I am getting good-ish prices on Avianca.
LAX-SAL-LIM-EZE and the same routing way back.
But the problem it has 50 mins layover in SAL OW and 40 mins on return. Generally, I am not comfortable with short of a connection. Some odler FT posts seem suggest its dobale. Is it? is it legal? Do they 'wait' so that pax can make the connection?
FWIW, I'll only have a carry on backpack.

That´s not a problem, SAL is a very small airport with around 20 gates, the only problem is if one of your flights is delay, I have tried both, sometimes they have waited for me because there is a good number of passenger connecting with that flight, if is only you or a very few number they let the plane go and reeschudele you on a different flight or airline.
