The 34 minute connecting time in CVG is legal for Delta. I guess we are just going to take our chances. I needed to be in Istanbul by 1:30pm on September 17, so I am just going to hope that we make the connection.

Sloppy work by the agent. Yes, the check-in cutoff for MCO is also 45 minutes, but what I quoted you earlier is the deadline for the gate and that, of course, applies to each segment. It is specifically 45 minutes for international departures.

Needless to say, the GA at CVG applies the gate time if the GA needs the seats.
