Well, I've done 1A and 7K so wanted to try WT+.
Could have got a 787 to LAX but prices were a lot higher for the earlier flights.
No rush either although would rather not spend my night with the slowest TSA agents ever.

Extra 20TP for the connection and it's a new airport to try out if I choose it.

The 12:25pm departure is nice enough although I miss lunch in the lounges. An advantage of the 3:30pm A380 is that I can eat and drink a bit.

Might get lucky with the incredibly long airbridge someone mentioned in a previous trip report

Did read something about there being 2 GE machines and quite a few negative comments about TSA related things, but when isn't there?

What's it like in reverse? Domestic to international.
