AA DFW minimum connection time on international arrival
What is AA's Minimum Connection Time at DFW for an international arrival connecting to a domestic departure?
Reason I ask.
I'm flying back from Bangkok on 31 Jan.
NRT-DFW on AA 60 arriving 3:05 PM. I *WAS* scheduled on AA 5828, departing at 6:20 PM.
AA just sent me a schedule change notification. AA 5828 no longer exists, and they moved me to AA 5777, departing at 4:50 PM.
Arrive 3:05 PM, Immigration, Baggage Claim, Customs, Baggage Re-check, TSA re-check (at Terminal D, mind you), and then high-tail it for the high end of Terminal B, most likely, board at 4:20 PM for a 4:50 PM departure.
RIGHT.
For once, I drew a competent agent on the AA PLT number. I explained the situation, and she changed me to the late flight, AA 5767, departing at 8:45 PM.
I will stipulate that 105 minutes MIGHT be theoretically legal. Having flown that particular arrival and connection twice a year for several years now, having seen how Immigration, Customs, and TSA back up, I can tell you that you're begging for trouble if you try it.
So, out of curiosity, what is the MCT for that scenario?
