We've been to DTW a few times, but never had such a short connection time. When we booked the flight, we had almost 2 hours. Is this doable to go from Domestic to International or should we call Delta and ask for an earlier MCI - DTW flight? We will have carry-on luggage and one checked bag (that should be checked through) but we are in row 15 (closest we could get). Any help would be appreciated!
That is pretty tight -- this thread shows the MCT for DL-DL I-D as 40 minutes. Minimum Connection Transfer Time at Detroit (DTW): The Definitive Thread
I expect there is an earlier MCI-DTW flight that you could change to? Or DL might reroute you through ATL or SEA but you would miss the 350.
