H is for hurried 

I’m currently in the process of getting myself to HKG and a bed that doesn’t move. It’s a multi flight process from SFO on AA. First is the change in terminals at LAX, from Terminal 4 to the Tom Bradley international terminal. They recently opened a connector between the two terminals that is after security. Nice. And since there’s a fair amount of walking, it’s clean and quiet. Definitely not hurried. Compare this to landing at Shanghai Pudong after 14 hours in a composite tube with wings. Everyone wants off at once and it seems like a long footrace to passport control.  Thankfully 80% of the plane were PRC nationals so I went to the shorter foreigner line. Of course, the time I saved there was negated at baggage claim. Priority tags mean “last” here.
