I am inclined toward the DFW connection if we can avoid re-clearing security. I did a T3-T3 connection last month from DFW and loved it, but how does this work with the T3-T5 bus transfer? Do they run special busses to T5 for the DFW connectors or are you intercepted at T5 flight connections and routed directly into departures?
You get dumped into a sterile connector area, and then need to take a bus to T5 where you go through security there.
