Hi, I’m new to airlinesim and I’m trying to understand how connection flights work. My airline’s hub is in Lima. I have set up three main departure times: 09:00 transfer time is 1hr meaning earliest arrival to connect would be 07:59 is this correct?
My other departure times are 17:00 and 00:00 meaning earliest arrival times to connect 15:59 and 22:59.
Most of my flights depart at connecting times and arrive before the earliest time to arrive.
Should my flights be able to connect?
As far as I am concerned you are absolutely right. 60 minutes transfer means that passengers arriving 61 minutes before a particular departure are able to catch a flight at an airport like Lima. IIRC one exception is that passengers can transfer with less time as long as they remain onboard of the particular airplane.
Regards
An important note: just because you have connection times, doesn’t mean there will be passengers!! make sure you offer some routes that make sense…or else it would be a bit useless. Best wishes!! 
Thanks for the help, I currently have a few domestic routes connecting to some flights into Ecuador and Bolivia and I will add some more soon to Argentina and Chile
