Wait 3 hours and then maybe get arrested because you have pictures of some girls on your phone. Sounds great!

Take care CR it's been real. Not dealing with this BS.

I arrived from Panama at MDE last week. It took me less than 15 minutes to get from the plane to my car waiting for me at the terminal exit.

Any opinion on the best time to arrive? I usually arrive around noonish from Atl and deal with lines. My last trip I arrived on a Friday night at 9ish and only had 1 person ahead of me. Was that luck or is night always less traffic? How is late afternoon?

If you arrive before about 11am, it's usually very fast. Around 11-12 all the flights start bunching up. This is pre-Paris attacks, so I can't say what it's like now.

I am returning Jan 5 for 10 days and this has me freaked out. Last January flew in United we were late by 25 minutes and we were jammed behind two planes but it only took 1 hour to clear. My United flight last May was at the gate 10 minutes early and we were # 5 in line and got through in under 5 minutes. My American (Dallas) flight in October was early (830P arrival) and I was # 1 in line and sailed through in 1 minute. I can handle an hour but 3 hours I think I will flip my shit. PVT and others in the know please keep this thread updated. Thanks...

They use to have a direct flight out of Charlotte
to SJO. I guess they cancelled that after the merger.

No problem and I hope it's good information we report. Sitting here watching the news packing and listening to all the travel alerts so I'm sure security will be tight
