Then again, check in online, no worries.
Yeah, the security line can be a bit unpredictable (especially during tourist season), but even with that gamble, I usually get there between 40 and 50 minutes before flight and still have more than enough time. But since the OP is connecting, definitely shouldn't be a worry.
