Title: Indirect flights to Vegas - flight change time
Post by: Gazza on April 23, 2009, 08:55:12 PM
We've decided to slum it this time and plan on taking an indirect flight to Vegas this summer. The changeover is in Atlanta with 2 hours 10 minutes between the two, is this enough time? I think it's on the border of not being long enough, but does anyone else have experience with this?

TIA

Send PM's to Simon Galloway & Chompy, self-confessed experts on this matter.

I used Atlanta last year and was through immigration very quickly. So you should be okay

Yeah Americans are pretty quick believe it or not, and I think when I went last year we had around 2 hours gap and made it with plenty time to spare.

My specialist subject...
I'm guessing if you're going though Atlanta that you're with United? If so try and get it through San Francisco or LA instead. Better to do a long flight then a quick jump imo.
Two hours is about ideal between flights.

Just realised I haven't looked into filling in Visa's etc yet can someone let me know what needs to be done beforehand.
Going via Philadelphia this time only had two hours between flights initially but its been rescheduled and now 4 and a half hours in between.
