Agreed it's not a sure thing....but have you had other gates lately? I'm 4/4 out of gates 1-4 in the last 4 months on US-bound flights (2x JFK, LAX and SFO), where they've been doing that specialized security bit within the concourse itself (instead of doing it on the jetbridge). More curiosity than anything, I was wondering if CX is really making a concerted effort to put the US-bound flights in that area or if my experience has just been a coincidence
