How Long Does It Take To Go Through The Baggage Claim Of MMIA? by Quads: 11:55am On Nov 28, 2012
Can someone out there help me out? I'm trying to book a domestic flight to PH same day that my flight comes in but I'm kinda skeptical as the last flight for the day is by 5:30pm while my flight lands by 3pm. Hence my question. Would it be too close to call if I go ahead and book the 5:30 flight?

Has anyone gone through the arrival and baggage claim of MMIA in recent times (app 2 weeks) and how long did you spend?

I have not been to MMIA recently but I can confirm 2 u that it would b 2 short. u have 2 b at the check-in counter latest 1 hr b4 departure, so it means u must be out of the immigration jungle no later than 4.30pm. It looks very short.

What other options do you have?
Do you have a place you can crash in lag?
Cos I will advice you to have a plan B just in case you miss your domestic flight!
Or you to fly Airfrance, thy go to PH. But that means you have to transit in France.

Yeah, I hav a plan B dats to buy two tickets : the 5:30 pm and 7 am ticket (how wasteful) and I have friends I can crash with but I wanted to go straight home. I dont think AirFrance flies out of DFW but then I didnt check, went straight for Delta. Thanks though.

AF does have a flight from DFW but it goes via Atlanta then CDG and then direct 2 Abuja.

You will be stuck,the time is too short. I had similar experience sometime ago and it took me over 1h30m to go through baggage claims.

Fly airfrance direct to PH international from CDG,though you will stop briefly at abuja to discharge passengers.since i made that discovery,it has been my best bet.Lufthansa also goes direct from Frankfurt.
