Late January I'm flying AUH-FRA-DTW (final leg LH442) in J, ETA 2:25
And on a separate ticket DTW-CVG (DL4672) ETD 3:52. I'm hoping to be without a checked bag but could have one.
I have GE, Clear, and Pre.
Wiki says I should allow 2hrs from the non DL TATL but I was hoping to avoid the potential for a 7hr layover at DTW. Of course it depends on the LH flight being semi on time, but how narrow are my chances?
From what I've read here, customs shouldn't be too bad and I have options to attempt to quickly re-check if needed and get through security [and if it matters am in pretty good shape].
Should I see if I can be booked standby for the DL 9:15pm ns?
