I'm happy to spend an extra 5 minutes dealing with security to get several hours in a far superior "waiting room".
I also have never had to spend more than 40 minutes each way on this transfer which also allows some walking and change of scenery which I like. Funny to me how some make this “journey” seem like such a fuss or major life stressor.
