Terminal 2 to Terminal 1Nov 27, 201133My son is coming into Terminal 2 and catching a conncecting flight at Terminal 1. The times are very tight. How long will it take to move between them? Is he better off walking or taking a shuttle? If shuttle... what level does he get that on?mpjposted on Wed, Nov 23[ Reply ]3 people like this post [ Like ]Both terminals are connected at their gate areas, so from the secured area there he can walk from gate to gate. Terminal 2 has E & F gates on the lower level of E&F Concourses; Terminal 1 has 22 B gates and 32 C gates. He needs to look at his ticket i.e, C-32, B12....no time to waste!1039posted on Wed, Nov 23It's a quick walk but it can be done, just follow the signsBBposted on Wed, Nov 23

Checking in at T5, eating at T1Nov 27, 201120I have an international flight that will depart from Terminal 5, but would like to eat at a restaurant in Terminal 1. Can I check in and go through security in Terminal 5 and then take the ATS to Terminal 1 for food, then return to Terminal 5 to wait for my flight?SLposted on Tue, Nov 221. Yes you can check in at T5; then proceed to T1, eat in the non-secured area (post-security), take train back to T5, but you need to go through security again. Watch your time!HH39posted on Tue, Nov 22

How long does it take to get from TerminNov 14, 201112How long does it take to get from terminal 5 to terminal 1***posted on Mon, Nov 142 people like this post [ Like ]You arrive at the International Terminal - note that all international arrivals need to go through passport check, pick up their bags, go through customs clearance and - if transferring to another flight - re-check-in their bags - that takes on average 30 mins. A level below the Federal inspection is the ATS level which houses the ATS shuttle train running every few minutes between the terminals. At T1 you arrive in the secured area where you should proceed to closeby gate B6, or walk past gate B8 at right to take walkway to C gates, or turn left to C15 gate. (look at your ticket for gate number).1039posted on Mon, Nov 14

YYZ to HKG via ORDNov 8, 201110I will be flying to Hong Kong from Toronto with a connection in Chicago. My layover will be about 90 minutes. Will I have to reclaim bagage? The flight will be with AA, but the ORD-HKG leg will be operated by Cathay Pacific.StuGautzposted on Tue, Nov 81. Toronto has US customs facilities - no need to go through it at Chicago. 2. You need to contact AA to find out if they transfer your baggage to Cathay Pacific (which may fly out of the same international Terminal 5 you arrived at - I have no Cathay listing). If they don't transfer your bag, you need to get the bag in the baggage claim area and re-check it in with Cathay. Look at your ticket to see which gates you arrive & depart from. T5 has itf gates around the concession court, gates M12-21 right, gates M7-M1 left & gates M8-M1 in center - long walks. 90 mins is tight if rechecking bags.MUCposted on Tue, Nov 8

ORD TO HONG KONGNov 1, 201120I arrive at on Delta at terminal 3 and depart from terminal 5 for Hong Kong. I have about 2 hours but will have to pick up baggage and recheck them for other carrier. Can I make it ok?jftjr1posted on Mon, Oct 311. Only international arrivals need to go through baggage recheck. At your original departure airport, make sure that your checked bags are tagged for all 3 airport codes so that they arrive safely in Hong Kong. 2. A shuttle train, the ATS, runs between T5 (he ATS level) & T4 and takes only minutes. You have plenty of time.1039posted on Tue, Nov 1

What terminalOct 31, 201120We fly in on UA980 and depart UA3776, What is the distance between terminals?Kayposted on Fri, Oct 281. If you arrive on an international flight and connect to a domestic flight: (a) Unless you have gone through US customs clearance by participating airports in Canada and the Caribbean, you need to go through passport check, retrieve checked bags, go through customs clearance and - if transferring to another flight - re-check-in bag (the tag should indicate layover and final destination Airport Codes). (b) thereafter proceed up one level to Airport Transit System ATS and take train to domestic terminals 1, 2 or 3 (running every few mins). 2. If you arrive on a domestic flight, UA & UA Express serves both T1 & T2. - T1 has B&C gates; T2 has E&F gates. Both T1 & T2 are connected by a pedestrian tunnel, also around B gates is a walkway to some F gates. While most E&F gates are on the Mezzanine level of T2, the F11A,B,C gates are on the lower level. Look at your ticket indicating your gates (B14, F12, etc.)1039posted on Sat, Oct 29

Time Between FlightsOct 27, 201110Question - Is 1 hr 17min enough time to make a connecting flight from Continental 1501 ( from Houston ) to United 5561 ( to Regina Canada)?L805Uposted on Wed, Oct 26Continental arrives in Terminal 1 which has B and C gates (i.e., B10, C-32, etc.) If arriving from an international flight you need to go through passport control, pick up your bags, go through customs clearance and then re-check-in your bag (estimated time 30-40 mins.); then proceed to Terminal 2 which has the E & F gates. Both terminals are connected at their gate areas. Look at your ticket for gate number (i.e., E-10, F-9, etc.)1039posted on Thu, Oct 27

Time between flightsOct 22, 201110Can someone tell me if I will have enough time (50 minutes) between flights from Omaha to ORD and to Hong Kong? I have a carry on but the plane from OMA to ORD is small and I will have to check in the carry on at the gate at OMA. Which terminal do international flights use?ncfposted on Sat, Oct 22Depends on Airline- look at your ticket to see which gates you arrive/depart. 1. At Epply, which has at South Terminal A gates 1-10 & North Terminal B gates 11-20, make sure that your checked bags indicate all 3 Airport codes so that they arrive automatically in Hong Kong. At ORD, you are most likely to depart from T3, which has G, H, K & L gates (unless you depart on ANA (all Nippon) or Continental, which are in T1 (B & C gates). Domestic terminals 1, 2 & 3 are connected at the secured departure level, so you won't have to go through security again. Your ticket should indicate the gate (i.e., A1, K20, H18, G17, etc.) Time will be sufficient if you know where to go.1039posted on Sat, Oct 22

Time between flightsOct 21, 201122We are flying from DLH>ORD >IAH>CUN. Time between flights in Chicago is 43 minutes. I'm thinking this will not be enough time to get to our next gate....???Dawnposted on Fri, Oct 212 people like this post [ Like ]Arriving at ORD: you need to look at your ticket which terminal and gate you arrive /depart from. ORD has 3 domestic terminals which are connected to each other at their gate areas. Terminal 1 (T1) has B & C gates, T2 has E & F gates, T3 has G, H, K & L gates. (your ticket will indicate gates - i.e., F11, B4, etc.). Transfer time will be enough. At DLH, make sure your checked bags indicate all airport codes so that they will arrive at CUN.HH39posted on Fri, Oct 21

Wait for arriving passenger?Oct 20, 201110My son is flying into O'Hare on American Airlines over Thanksgiving. Some family of ours that has not seen him in a long time would like to wait for him as a surprise when he leaves the secured area of the arriving flight gates. Is there an area that we could go to wait for him that he would definitely walk by as he leaves the gate area of his arrived American Airlines flight? Like perhaps an area just outside of the security exit? If so, can you tell me where that area is so we can get there from the hourly parking garage? If such an area does not exist, would you recommend we instead wait in the lower area by ground transportation for him? Thanks!MEMposted on Wed, Oct 19Your son will arrive in Terminal 3, which has three concourses (G, H, K & L)in the secured area. All arrivals will exit the secured area in the center of those concourses. Adjacent to that exit on either side is a set of restrooms - where you could gather. Short-term parking is in the hourly parking garage on level 1, which connects by tunnel to the terminal. However, being Thanksgiving (with possible delays and long lines) you could be in for a long wait. Find out what flight number he is arriving on. Alternatively you could meet him in the baggage claim area - watch screens for arrivals times. Your son is a lucky guy!MUCposted on Thu, Oct 20
