Hi again everyone,
Just after some current information.
Looking at flying Virgin (VA11) from MEL-LAX in late July. The flight is scheduled to arrive at LAX at 8.30am - it will be a Thursday.
Two questions -
1. Recently, is this an "on time" flight ???
2. Need to book an onward domestic flight to Sacremento. Looking at Delta. Can get a flight at 12.30pm. Would 4 hours be enough to clear immigration, collect baggage, customs, find Delta terminal, recheck bags, TSA etc etc in LA without being too pushed for time ??
Last time I went through LAX it only took about 45mins, but that is going back a few years. I would think that allowing 4 hours "should" be enough ???
Unfortunately the two bookings will be seperate - so could be an issue if I miss the second flight ??
I am Platinum Velocity if that makes any difference, and will be flying MEL-LAX in PE, so should at least get off the plane a little quicker.
Any input is, as always, appreciated.
Thanks,
Brooke
