45 minutes enough for domestic transfer at CGH?
Does anyone know about short transfers at CGH flying Gol?
I will land at 9:25am on GC1061 from GIG and want to change onto GC1016 at 10:10am to SDU. No checked luggage.
Separate tickets. CG1061 is part of a multisector ticket from Europe so I cannot change it or I would lose the rest of the itinerary.
I would like to get on GC1016 because I have friends on that flight.
Happy to hear any advice/personal experience.

Agree. Should be a quick and easy experience at CGH. Even if you happen to get a bus gate (there are 12 fingers + 8 bus gates I think) you are even likely to have time for a quick visit the Amex lounge (which is the only one airside -- though it is small and has no alcohol). Opposite gate 4.
Keep a watch at the monitors as last minute gate change is common.

Thanks guys for the tips. This is putting my mind at ease
Worst case scenario if I missed the CGH-SDU because the inbound from GIG was delayed, do you think Gol would charge a missed departure fee to put me on the next flight to SDU? I am KL Plat is that helps.

I doubt Gol would charge anything, especially since the delayed flight would also have been a Gol one, even if on a separate ticket. I'm not 100% sure, though.
