D = Domestic. Flighs arriving from airports with full border preclearance (YEG, YHZ, YOW, YUL, YVR, YWG, YYC and YYZ in Canada and STT, STX, AUA, BDA, FPO and NAS in the Caribbean) are considered domestic for MCT purposes. [1]
I = International.
Exceptions:
( 1) Mainline <-> Eagle/Connection = .35; Canada -> All = 1.00
( 2) Canada -> All = 1.00
( 3) Eagle/Connection <-> Eagle/Connection = .29; Equip Widebody -> All = .40; FPO/NAS -> All = 1.00
( 4) Equip Widebody -> All = .40; FPO/NAS -> All = 1.00
( 5) Equip Widebody -> All = 1.15; DEL -> All = 1.30
( 6) Equip AT7 <-> Equip AT7 = .30; FPO/NAS -> All = 1.00
( 7) FPO/NAS -> All = 1.00
(7a) Equip Widebody -> All = 1.15
( 8) Eagle/Connection <-> Mainline = .35; Eagle/Connection <-> Eagle/Connection= .25; All -> Hawaii .40
( 9) Eagle/Connection -> Mainline = .45
(10) AUA/FPO/NAS -> All = 1.00
(14) Equip J31/BE1 <-> Equip J31/BE1 = .25
(15) Hawaii <-> All = .30
(16) All <-> Equip ATR/AT7 = .40
(17) Eagle/Connection <-> Mainline = .50
Mainline = flights 1-2699
Eagle/Connection = flights 2700-5389
Codeshares (excluded) = 5600-8399 (see [2])
[edit] LHR minimum connecting times (AA and oneworld partners)
(Updated on 29OCT09)
A frequent forum question; they are dependent upon the terminal you are connecting to/from.
- AA, IB, JL, QF, RJ and MX operate from T3;
- BA operates predominantly from T5 with some flights from T3
AA <-> oneworld partner Within T3: 1.00 T3 <-> T5: 1.30
[edit] MAD minimum connecting times (AA and IB)
(Updated on 27-APR-07)
A frequent forum question; these can be dependent upon the terminal of the flights. Codeshared flights have the same MCT of the operating carrier.
Between AA and IB: 1.30
Between IB flights, most ranges (includes USA <-> Europe connections)
Depart T4 Depart T4S
Arrive T4 .55 | 1.05
Arrive T4S 1.05 | .55
- NOTE: between BCN and most longhauls greater MCT applies: for US destination it's 1.25 to BOS, ORD, IAD, 1.40 to MIA, and 2.40 to JFK; 1.15 from ORD, MIA, 1.20 from BOS, IAD, and 1.30 from JFK. All US flights have funnel (same-number) flight numbers through to/from BCN, so the MCT should not impact anyone.
Between IB flights, when one or both flights are in the 7000-7249 range
Depart T4 Depart T4S
Arrive T4 1.30 | 1.30
Arrive T4S 1.30 | N/A
Between IB flights, when one or both flights are in the 7250-7999 range
Depart T4 Depart T4S
Arrive T4 1.15 | 1.30
Arrive T4S 1.30 | 1.15
Note: most restrictive MCT applies
