Anyway ---- sounds like American Airlines hates CLEAR, ..... at O'hare/ ORD ..... the "Clear Terminals" are only set up in Terminal 1 and Terminal 2. Not Terminal 3 where American Airlines is.

HOWEVER, it is a 5 minute walk from Terminal 2 to Terminal 3 once behind TSA/ security.

Is it possible/ does it make sense to just go through Terminal 2 using CLEAR --- avoid 15-30 minutes of a security line certain days -- and then walk 5 minutes to the other terminal? I'm just not sure if security makes a stink about it, or if CLEAR works with an American Airlines boarding pass, or what.

If I have no checked luggage, I almost always enter at Terminal 2. Last month, I checked in and got an AA boarding pass at T3, saw a long line for TSA, and walked to T2 to use Clear. I find it worthwhile.
