Re: [MLUG - DISCUSSION] driving into STL airport on Friday afternoon...

If you are flying Southwest, it will be quick since they have their own
terminal. Otherwise, I've never had it take longer than 40 minutes to
check-in, check my luggage, and get to my gate at Lambert.

Whee...

So the good news is that I got a great price on my flight into DC this
weekend; it was just $170 round-trip, and it's a non-stop direct
flight.

The bad news is that I have to fly out of STL at 7:20 pm, which means
I should really get there at something like 6 pm at the latest.  What
makes this potentially tricky is that I teach until 3:50 pm.  Bleah!
Is it humanly possible to drive into the airport on a Friday afternoon
when you hit I-70 in Columbia at 4 pm and arrive in time for a 7:20
flight (and, yeah, I probably have to check a bag)?  If not, what time
*should* I leave?

I know many of you fly more frequently than I do out of STL, so if
there's any alt route in I should know of as well (that has a
guaranteed time to get in, unlike I-70 near the airport) now would be
the time to spill. :-)
