If all goes exactly as scheduled, this is a 2+ hour connection time from one end of Terminal 2 to the other. But UA24, while usually on time, has arrived as late as 10:30 -11 AM. What are the odds that I'll have enough time to connect from UA24 to TG911? I expect to be traveling only with a carry-on, no checked bags. Thanks in advance!
Hi,

Just to comfirm, is it all on one ticket or two tickets please? ( some people say they are connecting but in reality they have separate tickets that offer no protection in the event of delays)

If on one ticket you will be protected if there are dealys causing you to miss the TG flight.

You will need to clear connections security ( after getting of the UA24 , follow signs for Flight connections T2 .clear security then head to the departure gate.)
You will need to be at the gate about 1130 at the latest .
Minimum connecting time is around 1hr i think for a same terminal transfer so you should be able to afford a 50min dealy.

If you arrive on time 2hrs is plenty of time

Regards

TBS
