I guess ‘long’ is probably subjective.

For me, personally, not a huge deal to pass 90 extra minutes at the airport if I’m traveling alone. Its much bigger nuisance though since we have a 5 and 8 year old with us. Not that we can’t…but definitely not in the spectrum of ideal.

If more details help, this would be domestic flight departing CNX (Chiang Mai). Original departure time was 14:15, ‘rescheduled’ departure is 15:45. We were planning to arrive about 90 minutes prior to departure.
