Hi All,

Haven't transited WAW myself so I wanted to put it out there to travelers more familiar with transiting WAW about a flight I am considering booking. I am helping book flights for my family to visit me in California from Szczecin and wanted to know if 1h20m connection for domestic to US-bound flight is going to be risky. The contemplated flights are:

OUTBOUND:
Szczecin (SZZ)
DEP: 08:50
Warsaw (WAW)
ARR: 10:00
LO3932 E75

Warsaw (WAW)
DEP: 11:20
Los Angeles(LAX)
ARR: 14:45
LO021 789

RETURN:
Los Angeles(LAX)
DEP: 22:00
Terminal: B
Warsaw
ARR: 18:35+1day
LO024 789

Warsaw (WAW)
DEP: 19:25
Szczecin
ARR: 20:35
LO3935 E75


The domestic flights are due to be operated by E175s so they have a higher likelihood of getting a jet-bridge but those connection times concern me, especially with covid-era checks and US-bound security protocol. I'll make sure they sit at the front of the plane so they can get off quicker, but does anyone have any advice on this one or have any recent experience transiting WAW? As a follow-up: does anyone have experience getting rebooked by LOT in the event of a missed flight? Will they put you up in a hotel, meal vouchers, etc? Thanks and any advice is appreciated.
