Had a great flight into PJIA yesterday from CLT. Took about 40 minutes from deplaning to Hertz shuttle after retrieving our checked bags. Delta was before us so had to wait for ours to come out.
After check in and unpacking we opted for a quick dinner at the Pelican Grill on the Flamingo grounds. Really quick and good food and service. Highly underrated.
Power still an issue but thankfully Flamingo has a great backup generator.

I emailed Flamingo ahead of time to have them flip the icemaker on so we had ice for our drinks as we unpacked since we had booze in our storage box ready to go. So it was a great start.

I guess we were on that Delta flight just ahead of you We landed about 1:45....took less than an hour to get through and to our waiting rental car.
We were on the beach by 4:30.
