Arriving from ManchesterMar 20, 201320We land T5 on AA55 @12.40pm connecting with AA1773 @ 02.15pm (95 mins) for Phoenix. What are our chances of catching the connection? At Manchester, can we ask for our luggage to be throughput, or do we need to recheck it in at O'Hare?***posted on Wed, Mar 20[ Reply ][ Like ]The connection is doable but you will have to hurry. You will have to claim your baggage in immigration in ORD and re-check it with American once you exit customs. There's no way around that. You then have to take the ATS train from T5 to T3 and go back through security.ZAPposted on Wed, Mar 20

GETTING FROM TERMINAL 3 TO TERMINAL 5Mar 18, 201310I will arrive at O'Hare tomorrow at 3:20 p.m. on American Eagle (terminal 3?). I need to catch a flight on Aer Lingus at 7:15 (Terminal 5?). How do I get from one terminal to the other? Will there be enough time to accomplish this? Do I need to recheck my bag?KRposted on Mon, Mar 18Were your tickets bought on the same reservation? If so, then American should be able to transfer your bag to Aer Lingus. Otherwise you will have to claim it in T3 and take it to T5. To get from T3 to T5, you exit security, walk through the ticketing level, and across a pedestrian bridge to the ATS train, then take the train from T3 to T5, where you will get your Aer Lingus boarding pass (if you don't already have one) and go back through security. You have plenty of time, as that should only take an hour or so.ZAPposted on Mon, Mar 18

Are times accurate given the sequester?Mar 19, 201320Are the less than 5 mins wait times accurate for post-TSA cuts?Johnposted on Sun, Mar 10Those things aren't updated very regularly - it really depends on what terminal and what time of day.ZAPposted on Sun, Mar 10

American to Alaska AirlinesFeb 28, 201320I am flying from Flint, Michigan so they're usually smaller airplanes with American Airlines, then switching to Alaska Airlines to go to Seattle, Washington. I have 55 minutes to get to my connecting flight to Seattle via Alaska Airlines. I see they're both in Term 3, is that the case? So I should have enough time to get from point A to B and not have to re go through security? Originally I was under the impression I was switching terminals until I looked at which terminals are with what airlines. Thanks.JKGposted on Wed, Feb 27At ORD you arrive & depart from T3, which has Concourses G, H, K & L with corresponding gates. Look at overhead screens on arrival to find your flight number and gate, then follow signs. You have sufficient transfer time.thfeb13posted on Thu, Feb 28

TERMINAL CHANGEFeb 27, 201360I am flying into Terminal 1 on United and departing from Terminal 2 on US Airways, must I go through security again? Also how long of a walk between the 2 terminals.MSELLYposted on Wed, Feb 27At ORD you have a choice of walking or taking the ATS train, both options, however, require you to go through security check. A pedestrian tunnel connects T1 to T2; the ATS train departs on the upper levels.wefb13posted on Wed, Feb 27That advice is 100% incorrect. You can walk from T1 to T2 without having to go through security again. There is no "Tunnel" - it's just a regular walkway connecting the terminalsZAPposted on Wed, Feb 27thanks for reply, but I received to replys one says yes to security and yours no? confused?msellyposted on Wed, Feb 27I did not include the third option, thinking it may be too complicated: On thsecured upper level departure, right after you walk from T2's gate F8 past gate F1, at right end a connector to Terminal 1, where you will arrive again in the secured area, and where you should proceed to B or C gates (at gate B6, walk past gate B8 (at right), take walkway to C gates, turn left to gate C15.)wefeb13posted on Wed, Feb 27I did not include the third option, thinking it may be too complicated: On the secured upper level departure, right after you walk from T2's gate F8 past gate F1, there is at right end a connector to Terminal 1, where you will arrive again in the secured area, and where you should proceed to B or C gates (at gate B6, walk past gate B8 (at right), take walkway to C gates, turn left to gate C15.)wefeb13posted on Wed, Feb 27

Wiil you please clear me about my baggage transfer to air india flight.In myonward Journy to Memphis the baggage checked in Hyderabad ia delivered at Baggage claim at Memphis. Is this same practice wiil fallow in my return Journy to Hyderabad. At Delhi Layover time is hardly 1.5 Hours. Is it sufficent to re board the plane. Finally pl answer what checkings i have to clear at Chcago and Delhi. Please reply. Thanking you. gopalakrishnaKoka gopalposted on Tue, Feb 26If you bought your tickets on one reservation then American will transfer your bag to Air India. Make sure the bag is checked through to HYD when you check it in Memphis. You just have to get yourself from T3 to T5 in ORD via the ATS train, make sure you have your Air India boarding pass, and then go through security. On the return to Chicago, you will go through US immigration in Terminal 5, then re-check the bag with American and then take the ATS train to T3 and go through security there.ZAPposted on Tue, Feb 26
