Delays might make things uncomfortably tight, especially if your bags aren't interlined to the final destination. ORD baggage cut-off time is 40 minutes.
thanks. If I don't get a tag through to my final destination in ICN, can I still drop off (check) the bag with AA after customs in T5 or do I have to go all the way to T3 in order to check the bag? I can check in for my AA flight online and print my boarding pass in ICN. might help with making the 40 minute cut off if the flight is late.
