If your connecting flight is first port of entry to another city (like POS to Houston then to Wes coast) - take 3-4 hours layover because of the CBP processing
Use a friend's card who have more than that limit. Or go a travel agency and pay ttDe Dragon wrote:VexXx Dogg wrote:Internal flight you safe with 1-2 hours barring any delays. Even under an hour.

Good advice, always allow for delays in baggage claim, CBP, etc.
Off but on topic, what is the best way to pay for 4 tickets exceeding $3000 USD (Scotia Aero limit) mindful of the criminal banks and incompetent government USD restrictions?

Buy those that you can get the day before the US limit resets. Then buy the other ones. Some sites allow you to pay a nominal fee to lock in a price for 48-72 hours.
Ideally you want to allow 3-4 hours of layover time for international flights and 1-2 hours for domestic connections. Personally I like longer layovers so I can explore the delights of foreign airports.

It depends. Is the connection the same airline? Sometimes a connecting flight can be at a different concourse if the final flight is with another airline, which can require that you pass through TSA again.nightcrawler wrote:This is my first time taking a connecting flight so need some info.

1. The final cost (for 6 tickets) is about US$4500.00. Can I discuss with scotiabank to increase that US$3000.00 limit to pay for the tickets?
2. I entered everyone's name as it appears on their passport i.e. middle name as well, but I noticed that the final first name is concatenated. Would this cause an issue on boarding? e.g John Ryan Doe was combined as "Johnryan Doe"
I don't think I ever noticed that before.
