My confusion is finding myself in tighter connections, especially at ATL, than some who post they got a Porsche ride.
I am 2.5+ MM, charter DM, etc., but never get the Porsche so my default setting is no ride regardless of how tight. I usually ride FC/D1 either paid or with certificates.
I remember one time I tried to run up that tall escalator at E. That did not go well with tired legs as two pilots called out and asked if I needed medical attention. That image hit me early this morning when accepting alternative flights I fought to avoid.
