AA Flights MIA Terminal A - Connected to B-E now?
Is there an inside security passageway from A gates to the B gates now at MIA? It appears on the AA site that it is B-E and not A-E(omitting the horrible E20-35 of course)?
I may be arriving at A and leaving from B ad would hate to be outside security at A and have to go thru TSA for a 20 yard walk.

The passageways behind security are physically connected A-E. During my last trip through MIA in May B-A was completely open. In the past, it was roped off behind security with a secondary guard screening access.

I have only walked as far as B before usually to the AC inside security at B5 so I hadn't known until now you can keep going to A.

On a related note, since A-E except for the E sat are connected, which security checkpoints are the best bet for avoiding the lines? E's was an absolute mess midday last Thursday... nobody was getting through except when TSA realized a flight was about to leave and called those pax out of line. (They never called SFO passengers out of line, for example, so that flight had to be held.) I gather D is pretty busy too, but maybe A or B or C is a better bet in general?
