As far as I know, theres only one flight back to DFW that leaves around midnight. So if the passenger missed the flight, then the next available flight would be 24 hours later or the passenger would have to fly back via MIA. Also going from a shorter lie flat 767 to a long 6 hour recliner seat A319 after only two hours connection won't be very comfortable either. Unfortunately, the longer leg of UIO-DFW isn't operated by a 767. There was a line taking 20 minutes the last time I had to queue up at the international transit in UIO for a flight to LIM. That could make or break a connection too.
