I don't normally like such close connection times. And how is business class on Copa? Thanks
No need to clear customs. Just make sure that your bag is checked all the way through. 57 minutes should be fine. There will be another security check at the gate for your SFO flight, so don’t delay getting to it. As a J passenger you can skip the line
Hopefully the MAX will be back by then!!
