Here's hoping for a schedule change, I found the reason why that Basic Economy flight was so cheap haha.
Fingers crossed for a schedule change for you. I was going to book an AA flight that was from LIR but it was through MIA with a 1 hour 35 min. connection. No way I'm tempting fate with that one. I do have GE, however, it didn't do any good for me in DFW last time. Arriving flight was 40 minutes late, Took another 30 minutes for the bags to show up. Got zapped (selected) for secondary screening at customs, which took another 20 minutes and of course, by then missed the connecting flight (took another 10 to get to the gate). Then spent another 2 hours in line to find out it would take 2 days to get back home.
