Due to recent abuses of the appointment front-end grace periods, T5 will no longer offer a front-end grace period on appointments. We will continue to offer a back-end grace period of 45 minutes to accommodate our gate queue if a driver arrives to the terminal on time and needs to process through the gate. This is effective immediately.
For example, a 10am-1pm appointment will not be valid until 10am but we will honor until 1:45pm.
