Is this flight connection time tight?
My flight arrives at Miami from San Jose (Costa Rica) at 4:25, and I'm leaving to Madrid at 6:10. Will I have time to get the flight to Madrid? Also, I am a US citizen, so it won't take so long in security. Also, the flight from San Jose arrives at the same terminal than the one to Madrid departures.

Yes, providing your bags are checked through to your connecting flight so you don't need to collect them.

Just barely enough time, you need to expect at least an hour to get through customs and immigration and then security checkpoint before you can get into the terminal. If your checking bags, realize you will have to get your bags before going through customs and immigration, once past, there weill be a drop off section for your bags to get on your next flight.

I think it will depend on how many other international flights arrive in Miami around that time. Other people are probably going to be making that same connection so I would not be surprised if the airlines have planned for this so I think you will have enough time but you don't want to waste a lot of time as you will have to pick-up your bags in Miami and then re-check them to Madrid.
