LAX connection question
How much time do I need to connect from a Domestic America West flight to SQ19??
Current plan gives me ~100 minutes in LAX. Arrive Monday night 7:36PM and SQ19 leaves at 9:15PM
PS - I have no checked bags

By my math that gives me 59 minutes to get from T1 to the international terminal.

Don't know about earlier - to be safe I also now have a ticket on WN that gets in at 6:30 (giving me an extra hour) - we'll see what Monday brings and how fast I can get to the airport in PHX

I think you have enough time as long as your AW flight is on time. I've done this from US flights to SQ.
As Darren says, just shag ....
PS The SQ FC lounge at LAX is the world's biggest joke. Don't kill yourself in order to "enjoy" the departure lounge.
