The next PHX-JFK flight with an F seat missed my TATL, as did the next LAX-JFK flight (my scheduled PHX-LAX eventually got in roughly 1hr45 late - and although AA2 departed late also I still would have missed it). So I'm happy that I avoided that scenario. Let's see what BA can come up with - although on a fare that cost £400 or so, really it is neither here nor there. I would like the TPs though, as I have potentially missed out on between 130 and 180 depending on what posts for the IRROPS flight - this is a lot of European flying!

I am seriously going off JFK as a transit airport btw, that ridiculous "fast-track" security lane which is steeply uphill with tiny trays and no conveyer is a complete farce.
I had forgotten this was the Viking fare thread when suggesting a refund! I originally had a 38 min connection at LAX which was pushing it, given the flight would have arrived at the gate 44 commuter terminal, before AA realigned their schedule.
