Sometimes I get a text on my way in. Remember, you could do 5 Star select during these trying times and bump the other CKs to the end of the line!!
Unfortunately SNA was not an option. I figured the bus would be an extra 20-25 minutes, but not over an hour! I’m self-connecting on DL to AA at LAX tomorrow to avoid the bus situation (planned ahead of time).
