## 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 **not** make the connection. Here's the timeline:

**Arrival and Processing**
- Land: 1:35 PM
- Clear customs: 1:35 PM + 25 minutes = 2:00 PM
- Walk to gate: 2:00 PM + 15 minutes = 2:15 PM

**Departure Gate Requirements**
- Flight departs: 3:00 PM
- Boarding closes: 3:00 PM − 20 minutes = 2:40 PM
- You arrive at gate: 2:15 PM ✓ (before boarding closes)

**Result**
You arrive at your gate at 2:15 PM with 25 minutes to spare before boarding closes at 2:40 PM, so you *will* make the connection.

I apologize for the initial error—the math shows you **will** make it, provided there are no unexpected delays in customs or navigation.

Are there other factors like baggage claim or security rescreening that should be factored into your layover time?
