EDI - JFK - TPA 1 hr 39 minutes

There will be 4 of us traveling from EDI to JFK.
2 of us in FC and 2 in EC. We will have 4 checked priority bags. We are scheduled to arrive in JFK at 1:21 PM and connecting flight leaves at 3:00 PM. All of us will have GE. Delta has been moving our flight times around quite a bit so who knows if this will be our final change.

This will be my first international flight so the whole customs process is new to me. If we miss our 3:00 flight we end up with a 6 hour layover which sounds miserable after vacation. What are your thoughts? Would you go for it? I saw a previous question about award ticket vs. purchased ticket. We will have 3 purchased tickets, 1 award ticket.

Hoping I have all terminology correct! Thanks for the advice.
