DTW connection

We are going to be connecting in Detroit onward to Lansing several times a month. It looks like the CO flight comes into terminal B and the NW code share leaves from terminal A. How much of a hike is it from A to B?

I believe the run somewhat parallel to one another with a underground walkway between them. If I recall it didn't take long to get from one to the other. How long is your connection

Heres the link to detailed maps

A little over an hour. It sounds like we should be fine.

Terminal B is pretty short so it would take about 5-10 minutes to get from your gate through the tunnel to terminal A. Terminal A is a mile long and you get out of the terminal just in the middle of it. It realy depends on where your gate is but it shouldn't take more than 10 minutes by the tram or moving walways.
If your NW flight is on a regional jet or a prop plane - those depart out of terminal C which is on the same side as terminal B on a different level.
