minimum connection times

Does anyone know a good place to look for minimum connection times at various US and European airports? I'm always looking / asking around on FT and was hoping there was a site that listed minimum connection times by airport or even by airline / alliance?

thanks

A Google search listed a number of airline-specific times.

thanks for the reply. I travel a lot thru SFO and IAD. Those cities are not listed on this website. Anyone else know of any good places to find this info?

MCTs are airline and airport specific. Some airline timetable PDFs contain MCT information.

The following information is from Galileo -

MINIMUM CONNECT TIME TABLE SFO
STANDARD TIMES
DOM TO DOM :50 DOM TO INTL 1:00
INTL TO DOM 1:45 INTL TO INTL 1:45


MINIMUM CONNECT TIME TABLE IAD
STANDARD TIMES
DOM TO DOM :45 DOM TO INTL :45
INTL TO DOM 1:30 INTL TO INTL 1:30


The above involve connections between different carriers. Each carrier has its own minimum connection times, not only for each airport but even between certain flight numbers - e.g., mainline vs commuter. All of the information you want is in any of the major CRS used by the airlines and travel agencies - Galileo, Sabre, Worldspan - if you have access to any of those.

What about JFK and CDG? I just realized that these 2 were the ones that I really needed to know since I'm trying to book my flight thru both of these cities next month.
