We had intended to eat breakfast with our original 2 hour layover, but now with 4 hours to kill, looking for what we can do?
I know we will all be tired from not getting much sleep, if any on the red-eye. Suggestions?
You can always purchase a day pass to an AC, but I'd probably take the minute suites suggestion because it's cheaper. By the time you get into the terminal, you'll probably only have 3 1/2 hours to kill, and with a 30-minute window to board, that's down to 3 hours, so you can be a leisurely about your breakfast while waiting for the coffee to kick in.

A ride around the the whole SkyLink to your terminal (or walk to get those legs moving again), and you're at your gate in plenty of time to catch your flight. (I don't recommend the Sky Link if there's inclement weather; if they close it, you could get stuck in terminal E-of course, your flight will be delayed in turn, so no worries about that-I just find E to be the most boring one at DFW.
