At other airports, you have to clear immigration, retrieve your bags, drop them back off, and reclear security. All in all, connecting here in the US does add another layer of complexity to think about when choosing connections and times.
that's really helpful thanks. In fact, one of the flights I was looking at was a DFW connection with 2 or 2.5hrs.
