If your HPN-FLL flight is cancelled or substantially delayed, you're going to miss your connecting flight regardless of whether your connection time is 60 minutes or 90 minutes. So the question is whether the marginal increase in mis-connecting associated with a 60-minute vs. 90-minute connection time is worth upending your plans.
Are you willing to go out on JetBlue's JFK-SJO nonstop, if JetBlue is willing to switch you to that flight at no charge?
