I am considering doing an IAD to LAN mileage run. With the DC bonus going on, the fact I am a new member and will get a 5K bonus as well, it turns out to be 8500 miles for $79 - not a bad deal 
The flight into LAN arrives at 2:20 p.m. and leaves at 2:50 p.m. Having never been there before, is that a legitimate turnaround? NWA.com will ticket it, but I want to be sure before I buy the ticket.
Thank you in advance

Shouldn't be a problem. There isn't more than 10 gates at the airport.Originally Posted by MapleLeaf

Most likely it will be the same plane and crew.

That's what I was thinking, since those LAN-IAD flights don't connect with anything. But that is a pretty quick turnaround time for NW. Sounds more like Southwest!Originally Posted by heasdstrong

MapleLeaf - officially making your switch to NW?
Yeah I am leaving LH due to the radical change to their program and have switched to NW and UA. I was going to be 100% NW but with the DC promo going on for UA, it was too hard to resist... who else is gonna give me a free RTW ticket?
I am Gold Elite right now on NW (status match), and will do MR's if necessary to at least Silver Elite for next year. If I wasn't doing the UA RTW promo, I would be Gold or Platinum Elite for sure.

Just be ready to explain to the crew what you're doing. Had an unpleasant experience on Mesaba once this way (at DAY, IIRC).
