Security Requirements on Mileage Runs

Hey guys,

Doing my first mileage run in a while and wanted to refresh my memory.

YYC-SEA on AS. I clear US customs in YYC. No problem
SEA-LGB on B6. Only a connection so I go gate to gate. No problem

LGB-SEA on B6. Here, can I go gate to gate or do I need to exit the secure area and go through security again? I wanna say that it would be the same as my connection in SEA but I am unsure.

SEA-YYC on AS. I clear Canadian customs in YYC. No problem.

This flight is all on the same day. Thanks!

You shouldn't need to go through any security on your turn in LGB, particularly as the airport is small and only seems to have a single straight concourse (see drawings of the terminal modernization completed in 2012).

You can remain inside the secure area. No need to re-clear TSA.

LGB is one of the coolest airports I've been to.
If the weather is nice, you can relax outside between the two terminals.
