25 minutes is below the 60-minute international MCT at Carlos Ibanez Del Campo International. You may need to rush and could miss your connection. There is only one small terminal building, so all connections happen via a short walk through a single shared gate area and security checkpoint. There is no airside transfer corridor; passengers typically exit to the landside hall and re-clear a single security screening point before re-entering the gate lounge. International flights (rare, mostly seasonal charters or Argentina links) are processed through the same small hall with basic passport control.
