Hello, I'm getting to JFK from Chile at 8am through LAN airlines and the next flight is a domestic one, through United Airlines, 2 hours later. My question is, am I gonna be alright with 2 hours, or should I buy new tickets.
Extra info:
-I'm not a US citizen. I have Argentine citizenship.
-I scheduled that transition myself.
-I am 20 years old

If you happen to have experience and 2 minutes, please answer my question. Thanks.

you need more time. Customs can take as long as 1 hour (sometimes more) for foreign travellers. Also you should arrive to check in at a flight at least 2 hours before it departs. you need therefore 3-4 hours really.
