About an hour, it usually takes ground crew about 15 minutes just to begin the process and thru customs remember that all international flights go thru the same lines, irregardless of flights. Sometimes you can have 3 flights land at once. Takes about 40-50 minutes typically.

That will depend entirely on how busy Immigration and Customs are. There may be other flights arriving at the same time.

baggage claim is around 15-20 min (depends if they are lucky and their luggage are one of the first ones) and customs can be a long wait if they arent one of the first people in the line...trust me the line is HUGE

I'm in the Army and in Iraq and everytime we go back we have to hit Custums. Give it about an hour give or take due to the lines

Where in the USA?
That time should be ok.
Do they have lugagge or just carry on?
I would say at least 45 min to play it safe.

It depends on whether or not you get selected at random for a cavity search.
