In my opinion: if you can afford it, take a later flight or stay an extra day.
Even if you could make it, when you have two hours left of your exam, you don't want your brain to go wondering and thinking about the flight. This is not the time to be worrying about if the airport will be busy, if the traffic will be ok, if you'll miss the flight etc. etc. It's easy to get distracted if you have to worry about something else besides the lab you're doing. Less distractions, more focus on the lab. Just my 0.02 :) With regards J'J -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Brian Hooker Sent: 14. maí 2012 19:22 To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [OSL | CCIE_Security] RTP Logistics Query Having been there more times than I like to admit, I can confirm that the exam will actually start at around 7:30 and you'll get out of there around 4:00. The airport is generally not very busy and you would probably make it just fine. With that said, my next trip is booked and I elected not to go for the 5:30 that was available to me and will be waiting on the 7:30 that gets me home 3 hours later. My thought is that with all of the other stresses that I have to deal with the last thing I need is another worry on my mind. You could have connectivity problems to the remote lab gear or a hardware issue during the day, and that could extend your day somewhat. It's better to have some padding just in case if that's an option. Just my .02...

I see no reason why, correspondingly, the exam in RTP would start at 8 AM, either. ? If you work to the very end, and if you hustle right over to the airport, then I think/feel you will be flirting with danger (i.e., the likelihood of missing your flight) if you book ANY flight earlier than 6:30 PM. You still need to take the rental car back... 10 minutes, go through security .. 10? minutes.. AND, as a general rule-of thumb, you need the airline's system to know you are present - there - at the airport - and this is accomplished by getting a bording-pass, or whatever - (if you don't, they will be calling your name on the overhead speakers - or putting standby passengers into your seat!) ? Where is BRU? Brussels, I imagine.. ? Good luck, in the meanwhile.

Is it feasible to catch a 1710 hours flight after the exam? I believe the exam in RTP starts at 07:05 and finishes before 1600, is this enough time? Sorry I am not familiar with RTP and its airport etc. Appreciate any advice!
