Two factors are at play:
  1. Missing the Connecting Flight: If you miss the connecting flight (for any reason), will you be able to easily get on the next flight. I don't fly enough to have an opinion on how AA or WN will handle that situation.
  2. Traffic: You don't mention the time of day when you'll be transferring between FLL and MIA. I live in Fort Lauderdale (about 10 minutes directly north of FLL) and used to work part-time in a building that was adjacent to MIA. If I was scheduled at 5am, I never worried about traffic. But, if I had to be there at 9am, my travel time increased by 3 or 4 times.
