So we arrive on UA 934 from LAX arriving at 12:15pm

Connecting to UA 9609 leaving at 1:40pm for Lisbon

I looked up on the LHR website, it's terminal 1 to terminal 1. MCT is 60min.

So from experience of you folks here. With the 1:20 connection time, will my bags make. T1 to T1.

I looked up future flights and there are two more flights from LHR to LIS after mine by TAP Portugal. So I guess worse case, I'll be waiting in LIS for the next flight to bring my bags.

We're going on a cruise the next day and this was the best I could do while sticking is *A.

Thanks
If you make that connection frequently, can you (or the checkin) add a red 'short connection' tag to the baggage? I think I've seen that tag on a carousel somewhere (sorry can't remember where).
