There was no one meeting the flight and the transfer desk was closed so we had to go through immigration and re check in. The check in staff was efficient and put us on the LAX flight a few hours later, but if there had been AA staff meeting the flight and knowing there were passengers making with a delay making a tight connection I'd like to think we might have made it.
My feeling is there is an American chief of station who may or may not be there and a supervisor on duty who knows what is going on.
