Is this enough time, or should we be getting in earlier? If we miss this flight, there's not another one for 4 days, plus the fact that it's our honeymoon, so I want to be as sure as possible that we'll make it (without spending all day in LAX either). I've never been to LAX (or PPT for that matter), and I would really appreciate some advice.
Because there is no flight to PPT for the next four days, I would rather spend a couple of extra hours in the LAX CRC or seek a dinner at local restaurant. Unfortunately, the next earliest flight arrives almost 3 hours earlier, but that's the one I would take... if that one is cancelled, you are still going to be golden on the flight that gets in at 740P. With a potential 6 hour layover, I would look into a decent dinner at some restaurant in LA. But if the 740P flight is cancelled or extensively delayed, you might be screwed, though not in your honeymoon suite!
