  • Why is my flight sooo early?

    5AM (!!!) departure out of RSW 5/4. Shirley that airport is not set up for 24hr ops, are the doors even open at 4AM on a Sunday??
    Thanks.

    I got stuck on two 6 AM flights next month, on the 9th and 16 out of CLL. I was originally going to be at 7:30, and then AA completely changed up my flights. The only one out of CLL to DFW that will allow me to make a decent connecting flight to ATL (9th) and DAY (16th) require me to fly out at 6AM. At least they were nice enough to change the flights from DFW and both return flights so I wouldn't arrive back home on the ~9:30PM both times, without charging me for it.

          Tsk, tsk. You've used logic.

          We haven't had that spirit here since 1969.

            Oh, crap, you're right. It's so early because the airlines hate you and I.

                Thanks.
                Well. The internet is our friend, if we know how to step back from the web 2.0 .
                Not everybody on this planet is a facebook member, thank God.

                I had a short glimpse on flylcpa dot com. And if I can trust my eyes, this site tells us that between
                0732 pm and
                0550 am
                there are no departures at KRSW. But that does not mean, that the airport does not allow overnight presence for early t/o passengers.

                My solution: Call your airport, the number is
                Phone: 239-590-4800
                The German long haul is alive, 65 years and still kicking.
                The Gold Member in the 747 club, 50 years since the first LH 747.
                And constantly advanced, 744 and 748 /w upper and lower EICAS.
                This is Lohausen International airport speaking, echo delta delta lima.

                  Dunkin should be open outside of security. Grab some coffee and chill.

                      Was that your only leg that day?

                      And, now I understand why the flight is that early. Consider, that's that A321s first leg of the day, and with US they are well utilized planes - so a long day ahead.

                      BTW, do you have pics/comments about RSW? It seems like such a tiny airport and is overshadowed by TPA et al. How was it?
