-CRJ arrived 30 min early. Beer was boarded quick per baggage app tracker.

-Landed LGA expressway visual approach on runway 31 after flying over a 737 inbound to EWR.

-Taxi to gate D9F, the same as our departure. While I personally enjoy being on the tarmac (wx pending), it can be a hassle for others. Had a gentlemen with mobility/handicap issues with a walker. AA employees and copilot helped him onto shuttle bus. Then back to D9F, he had to make it up the stairs as there was no elevator. That held up the whole line of people going up the stairs as he went slowly. While this helped delay the time I would have to wait to get to baggage claim, it only added 3 minutes. But I can see if others had connecting flights, how it would be a hassle.

So between the shuttle to D9F and walk to baggage claim, it was 15 mins and baggage was waiting for me. Pleasantly surpassed at how quick it was.

Thanks again for brew advice
