Flying from NYC to OGG with HA. Is an hour and 15 minutes too tight for stopover in HNL? I heard that the NYC to HNL leg can be notoriously delayed. Should I go with the later HNL to OGG flight and have a 2 hour stop over in HNL?

I'd stick with the 75 min stopover, assuming it's one itinerary worst case they'll put u on the next flight

UR don't transfer to B6. If you mean MR, yes.

Who do you think you are fooling? You think you are going to pull a quick one on your Creator? Good luck with that.

I'm sure this has been asked before but cannot seem to find it, so:

I have a flight leaving out of LGA on UA with a connection. Can I SDC to a direct flight, same destination, out of EWR? (I am UA Gold)

Is an issue to take a couple of office telephones to Israel in my luggage?

In my experience they rarely let you change from a stopover to a direct.

I'm not sure what SDC (standby direct change?)stands for but from what I understand you're asking if you can change the original itinerary which is with a stop over to a direct from a different airport.
In my experience they rarely let you change from a stopover to a direct, and especially not from a different airport.
 As I'm typing this I realized SDC can also stand for Skip departure city in which case the answer is I believe no.
How about Same Day Change (as in change flights on the day of travel).
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!

Changes are only available for the exact origin and destination airport. Connection points may be changed provided the new routing is permitted by the fare purchased
Looks like the answer is no

Why is flight aware telling me my flight is delayed 3 hours, while AA is still telling me it is on time?
I'm not who you think I am.

It's possible AA didn't get the memo yet

Probably, if they find it. Unless you have a *really* good reason for having them, they'll want the duty.

Side point, I've personally never spoken to a person at Israeli customs, but I've also never been bringing in anything that's not allowed.

Where else can I view PNR for Turkish Airlines? I want to check the seats out. I tried a few Star Alliance Airlines. None of them worked so far.
