EK Error Scheduling??
Hi Everyone,
Maybe you can give me some insight?
For the past 2 weeks (via flighttrack) the EK 373 BKK-DXB is due to depart 21.20 and arrive at 00.30 to Dubai. So this is a 6 hr 10 min flight (after time zone changes).
However the flight to DXB is approx 6hr 30 - 7 hrs which means all the flights have been getting into dubai late as scheduled (mostly up to an hour) Is this a big error on EK part?
Reason I am asking I am flying on this route and connecting to LAX with a 2 hour window and yes it will be delayed. If I have 60 minutes transit is this enough? I really can not wait for the later flight if missed.
Second question how long does it take for luggage to be taken off the plane sorted and then sent to second aircraft on transit?
Thanks all! Nigel
