Is that enough time to make the transfer? We'll be flying J on AA 931 and I am ST Elite Plus (DL Plat) if that makes any difference.
I do have EF alerts on the MIA - SCL flight since that would be easier (and then we could just add a tag leg on LATAM to get all the way to MDZ) but unfortunately no J space at the moment and doesn't appear like LATAM is running anything EZE - MDZ, all their flights are out of AEP which would be a bigger hassle than what I'm asking about above.
We would have checked bags (for bringing wine home among other things
)
Say you land at 9am, you should be finished with immigration and customs at 10am-ish, then it's a 5-10 min walk to Terminal C, and bag-drop for domestic flights doesn't close until 50 minutes before departure, plus you get the SkyPriority lane as a DL Plat -- provided your AA flight is on time, I think your connection is more than doable.
