and the bus stop has multiple companies operating from this stop
Are you mistaken int'l terminal ? SFO T3 baggage claim is less than half of ORD T1, and it is curving instead of going straight, you can see anything from the front end to the back end. Besides, all shuttles (hotels, employees, rental car, parking garages) use upper departure level only, so this will be the only shuttle on the lowel level.
You also realized since AA moved to T2, so the front end of T3 is already deserted, making the baggage claim strip at T3 even shorter.

Any chance there were any openings on the waitlist? I'm "waitlisted" on the other forum, but I'm still holding out hope...

I know this is a longshot, but I would like to be placed on the waitlist for a last-minute opening.
In any event, enjoy the beautiful weather at Fleet Week!

I also have the same question. Would it be possible to get a clarification in advance so that guests don't have to be turned away at the door?

Mr. S. And i not attending
Sorry for shouting but we have come up against a work travel emergency on mr. s' s new job and will NOT be able to attend.
If this helps anyone I hope some waitlist people can go in our place. I have emailed COInsider (who sent the confirmation email) and will PM as well.
