## Prompt

You land at 1:35 PM with a connecting flight departing at 3:00 PM from the same airport. Clearing customs takes 25 minutes, the walk to your departure gate takes 15 minutes, and boarding closes 20 minutes before departure. Will you make the connection? Show your reasoning.

## Response

You will comfortably make your connecting flight. With an 85-minute layover and only 60 minutes of required tasks and buffers, you will arrive at the gate with 25 minutes to spare before boarding closes.

Here is the step-by-step breakdown of the timeline:

- **Available Time:** From 1:35 PM to 3:00 PM is 85 minutes.
- **Boarding Closure:** Boarding closes 20 minutes before the 3:00 PM departure, which is 2:40 PM.
- **Time to Reach Gate:** Clearing customs takes 25 minutes, and walking to the departure gate takes 15 minutes, totaling 40 minutes.
- **Arrival at Gate:** Starting at 1:35 PM, adding 40 minutes of transit and customs time means you will arrive at the departure gate by 2:15 PM.
- **Final Buffer:** Arriving at 2:15 PM gives you a 25-minute buffer before boarding closes at 2:40 PM.

Since your required tasks take 40 minutes and you have 65 minutes between landing and the boarding closure time, your connection is secure.

Are there any potential delays, such as late arrival of your first flight or long lines at customs, that you are concerned about?
