Am I going to make it? I will probably just have 1 carryon luggage. I'm thinking this may be problematic if I have to switch terminal.

AA608 LAX-PHL arrive 6:52 PM (Flightaware says average delay of 40min to 1 hour)
AA92 PHL-ZRH depart 7:29 PM

It was booked by a bot that work made me use... I wouldn't have booked it like this myself
Keep in mind there are 2 flights to LHR that depart after the ZRH flight so you may be able to get rebooked on those and connect to ZRH. Also, if your LAX-PHL flight is delayed to the point you will likely miss the connection and are still in the terminal, go to customer service and try to get rebooked on one of the LAX-LHR-ZRH.

Finally, there should be 1-2 LAX-PHL flights before yours, you can always try to standby/confirm on those and give yourself a longer connection.
