We will be arriving (and hopefully departing) in the 4-6pm time frame. Any tips on increasing our chances of catching our flight? Can we expedite our de-planing, our baggage collection/re-check, etc? Any ideas will be welcome; otherwise, I will just have my kids make their pitiful faces & hope for the best!
I have made connections from International flights there in 30 minutes, so 1:45 should be doable. Choose seating near the front of the plane to ensure an earlier exit from the plane and carry-on all luggage. That is your best way to save time. Have all your customs paperwork done in advance and passports readily available.
