Verified travelerFlew with LATAM Airlines-Nov 2024
Get to airport 3 hours early, especially around holidays. (International) Delta and LATAM, 5 star airlines. Thank you!!
RandallFlew with Delta-Mar 2024
Plan on waiting in long lines for everything. Confirmed boarding pass still meant waiting to drop off luggage. I expect Security lines to be long, but adding a second screening on the jetway was unnecessary.
