The second sentence: "We drove to the airport and picked up my cousins, after their flight arrived from Toronto."
Reason: it has one independent clause ("We drove to the airport and picked up my cousins") plus a subordinate (dependent) adverbial clause ("after their flight arrived from Toronto"). The others join two independent clauses with coordinating conjunctions, so they are compound sentences.
