Thanks to the late CPH flight at 10pm, the ORD T5 SK office is usually staffed even at late hours.

SK/UA probably had quite a few SK 945 PAX miss their connections, so they increased the MCT for that flight.

The AA connection MCT is 85 minutes:

But will it be staffed from around sometime at 4 pm until 6 or 7 pm? When ARN and CPH aren't daily, getting SK staff at ORD has nearly required pulling teeth for much of the day.
