My son is flying AA, no status. The rest of us are elite flying with CO eith BF or coach. Would someone mind an update of departure process for both AA and CO? How much is needed? An update on departure tax is appreciated, too.
It depends on which AA flight your son is on.. If it is the 730 flight to Ord then it isnt too bad. As it gets later the lines will get very long if no status and Coach. In any event I would still allow 2-3 hours ( I go for 3 and use lounge). Can your son be a guest in the CO lounge?? Tax hasnt changed I think is still 18usd he can pay it just to the right of the AA check in or upstairs. The other place in the middle of the floor always seems to have the longest lines. In general I think that the entire process is not as long and difficult as it was in the past.
