Is this a record?
 
Just got into Edmonton from Toronto, from Seat Belt sign off to picking up baggage from from Conveyor belt 4min 28secs.


If this was Ottawa, it would take that long just to get the airbridge moving :mad:

I'm impressed :D

How long did you have to wait for the baggage?

And how long ws the drive in from Leduc? ;)

It's not hard to do that when nobody wants to fly there, and the few who do are forced to do so :D :D

Maybe your luggage took an earlier flight? :)

Last month LanPeru domestic arrival at Lima. 10 minutes from seatbelt sign to luggage. I thought that was impressive.

^ to the YEG ground crew.

Actually, I've been impressed with YOW lately -- they are getting faster with the airbridge. Plane is already being pushed out as gate is half retracted...

Of course, baggage is well... um... well, you know. ;)

I think it is sad that you timed it that accurately. :)

I think it's pretty cool...like playing a little game with the luggage and seeing if you can beat the record anywhere else.... ^

Ditto here.

Wow
 
Most impressive. I've only been to Edmonton twice and it took me longer to go to the bathroom.

My personal best is coming home from the US to YYZ. From seatbelt sign off to my home was 25 minutes. I had carry on luggage, clear customs in about 30 seconds (was first in line), walked out into a limo. I don't think I stopped moving for more than 15 seconds.

Ford :D
