Re: 1 hour layover at LAXIf your first flight arrives on time, then your extra 30 minutes before boarding begins can be put to good use…for that sandwich fish taco from Wahoo's . If you are content to just make the flight, 1 hour is fine.
Is a 30 minute layover too short international?
The recommended layover time for international flights is generally longer, as you will have to go through customs and immigration before boarding your next flight. In most cases, a 30-minute layover for domestic flights and an hour for international flights is considered a minimum, or short, layover.
Do I need to go through immigration for a connecting flight in LAX?
If you're connecting with another airline, you may need to change terminals. If you're arriving on an international flight, you need to clear US Customs checkpoints before entering the United States and collect your baggage (even if you're in transit and have connecting flights).
