Any issues you think? We are on the first flight in the AM from EWR (6am). If it helps at all we are flying in first PHL-AUA.
The gate check bags will kill you. If you can just deplane and run for the shuttle you have a chance, but its risky. If you plan to bring a rollaboard suitcase, realize the CRJs and smaller aircraft dont take them onboard and the extra 10 minutes to wait for your gate check bag does you in.
