I tried going to the airport 2 hours before my flight, express check in and all, and still never make it to the front of the line on Monday morning for a 9 AM flight.

Now, I arrive at 8:15, use the kiosk and go sit down near the windows. They call my STL flight at 8:35 sharp every week, and I'm the first one going through the express line... love it.

Unless they get a better system, I am going to keep abusing. In BOS, you can't enter certain areas until your time comes up on the board, this would eliminate all those people going to ORL and LAS with 10:30 flights bugging the AC people that they aren't going to make it through... at 8:30!!!!

side note: I was sitting on the bench last week, and an AC person asked me what I was doing... I said 'there is no way I am getting through this line' and she said 'I don't blame you' and came back to get me when they called STL... very amusing.
