I'm preparing myself for the worst, but I figure if I have as much info as possible ahead of time I'll be better off. Thank you!
Most United flights arrive/depart Terminal 1; however a considerable number of United Express flights arrive/depart Terminal 2. You will not have to leave security to connect between these terminals. Just check the departure monitors for your connecting flight's gate and follow the signs to that location. It's relatively easy.
Is 40 minutes enough time? Plenty of time, if your inbound flight is not late. If your inbound flight is delayed by 20+ minutes, you'll have a tough time, assuming your connecting flight is not also late.
