I was just on the phone with the CK desk to see if I could re-route on BA tomorrow night to avoid a just-above MCT JFK connection given the TSA situation (unfortunately, but not surprisingly, it would be a voluntary change). The agent called the JFK premium services team to see how things have been at 9 pm and they said that it has been extremely variable. Pre generally shuts down at 9 pm based on experience so it will be fun!
