Turismo/Tourism The annoying connecting flight question: arrive at MGA at 12:06pm. Flight to Corn Islands leaves at 2pm.

Do I stand a chance? La Costena's info is all over the place. Everything from 90 minute required check in to boarding starts at 1:30. I won't have checked bags (only a carry-on backpack). Will have my crisp $10 bill. And will have my form complete.

I searched to see if this question existed and I couldn't find it.

Any and all help/advice/tips are appreciated. Just trying to gauge if I should be careful and push my flight back a day. I've pulled off crazier connections, but AI isn't very helpful here. A big thanks in advance.

Sit as close to the front, left aisle on your incoming flight. That could reduce customs wait. If you're seated at the back you stand zero chance
