But AA is telling me 30 minutes is legal now in CLT (which is nuts to me given that they now start boarding 45 minutes prior to departure).
AA D-D MCT at CLT generally is 30 minutes (with some exceptions).
Why does boarding time matter? The only thing that matter is if the connection leaves before you do.
How significant was the change?
