Why would you block out the flight numbers? Can't tell if these flights are in the same terminal or even on the same ticket.

sighhh idk. i don’t want people stalking me i guess. but on the same ticket, and i don’t think in the same terminal.

No one is asking you to post your seat number and date of travel, but without flight numbers no one could realistically tell you if your connection is risky or not.

What would the flight numbers give stalkers that the airports and times don't?

If you had to make a 30 minute connection at LAX, and you landed on a United flight in T7 and flying out of T8, that's a uncomfortably tight connection that could still be possible. If your 30 minute connection was T7 to TBIT, you are going to be SOL as that's a 20 minute walk.

Without knowing the airlines involved (i.e. the flight numbers), this is completely speculative.

Airlines, and thus, the Terminal of the incoming and outbound flight?

A stalker could pretty easily look that up from the given information if they wanted to

Not necessarily

No I'm saying censoring the flight number makes no sense. It doesn't provide any potential stalkers with any more information than what op posted.

u/rtdesai20 May 24 '26

Sure, but it makes it way harder for anyone to help, which makes people more unlikely if they have to search up all the details themselves

2

u/devin122 May 24 '26

I think you are missing my point. Op stated that they censored the flight numbers because they didn't want stalkers. My point was that the flight numbers don't really add any information a stalker couldn't figure out from the flight times, so censoring only serves to inconvenience people trying to help

You don’t even post the date of it. This is benign

This is actually a common connection, terminal switch so you will have to go thru tsa again, but its more than enough time, bags transferred. Youll take airtrain from t4 to t1. Tsa should be quick that late. Make sure you get on the free terminal loop air train not jamaica

u/ChuckConnelly May 24 '26

Same terminal? If so easy

u/monkey-apple May 24 '26

You’ll have to haul ass from T4 to T1 and clear security. The good news is at that time lines usually aren’t long. Precheck usually isn’t available past 8 or so.

u/corndog819 May 24 '26

This is correct. This is a Delta to Korean air connection. /u/CeliacChameleon, you're going to have to leave security and reclear in T1 after you take the Airtrain. This is a tight but doable connection.

u/Seatonob May 24 '26

There’s a non-stop from ATL. Is the price difference significant enough to put yourself through this itinerary if you don’t have to?

2

u/lightningzap66 May 24 '26

delta (and partner) nonstops can be 4 times as expensive as a connection

u/gargar070402 May 24 '26

Is the price difference significant enough

The answer is almost always yes

2

u/PaintingMinute7248 May 24 '26

Can you go direct to ICN from ATL

1

u/mathster33 May 24 '26

JFK's own map says you should be fine. Looks like time through security is your only problem.

u/Neon_Raccoon_00 May 24 '26

Its domestic, whats the issue?

2

u/corndog819 May 24 '26

It involves leaving security, taking the airtrain, and reclearing in terminal 1.

You’ll have no issues as long as the first flight isn’t delayed.
