I want someone from PMCO to explain to me how these under 45 min conx are even remotely reasonable, never mind legal. I had an itinerary offered up to me with a 36 min connection - between CoEX and Mainline. Mainline boards 35 min before departure. The likelihood of a terminal change, plus the likeliness of a late arriving CoEx flight makes this beyond absurd.

I've had success once when a travel agent booked such an itinerary getting the Plat desk to book me on a later connection, but I would never knowingly book that tight a schedule. And it seems incredibly common to have it offered.
