Later flight has a good amount of space so should be fine getting on/switching. Earlier IRROPS caused this messy situation.

Thanks!

If your 25minutes includes scheduled (late) arrival to scheduled departure you need to remember that they stop boarding 15 minutes before departure time. That gives you only 10 minutes, which is almost certainly not enough time unless the second flight is late. If you've already factored this in, 25 minutes is close -- but it shuld be enough time if you hustle.
