Thanks everyone for the great advice. We were able to find her a flight (Round trip actually because it was cheaper which never makes sense) which will giver her 4 hours in New York. That should be plenty of time for her to catch her connecting flight. If it wasn't for you guys we were just about to get her a flight with only a 2 hour layover and that very well could have been a costly mistake.

Thanks again!

Darren did the same for his flight; he had a choice of 2 hours or 4 1/2 hours...he definitely chose the safer option: 4 1/2 hours...
