Later this year we are flying back home to the UK after a family holiday that connects at JFK. We are flying American Airlines from Orlando to JFK and then American Airlines to London Heathrow. Both are to and from Terminal 8.
Our flight orlando - JFK AA1782 arrives JFK T8 @ 22:15
Our flight JFK - London Heathrow AA106 Departs JFK T8 @ 23:10
Providing our domestic flight arrives at JFK on time will 55 minutes be enough to make it to our departure gate for our flight to LHR?
Our travel agent assures us that our bags should be checked all the way through from Orlando to LHR so we shouldn't have to reclaim or go through customs.
Can somebody please put my mind at ease that we'll be ok?
