I agree with Traveller's first sentence and disagree with her second.
I have always managed to get out and have a cigarette and an hour would have been plenty of time (assuming that I didn't have to clear Customs during that hour).
Of course, my smoking tended to be done rather quickly -- as I am usually flying into JFK in the heart of winter and I am dressed as you might expect of someone travelling from Tel Aviv to Florida.
