My booked LAX-ATL flight arrives 2 hours before the ATL-JFK leg, so I'm not quite worried about missing that connection, but the ATL-JFK-TLV (two flights/aircraft yet same flight#) is only a 45 minute connection.

They'll charge $50 even for Golds? I thought Golds were exempt from SDC fees. I've SCD many times as a Gold domestically and never been charged.
