Is there a shuttle between Concourse C and E at ORD? According to the Airport map on the United website, there appears to be a shuttle between Concourses C and E. Is there really such a shuttle? Thanks.

Da. Leaves all the way from the "left" end of C. Down by the low number. C4 is it? Someone who actually flies UX from ORD knows, I'm sure.

C9 and E3 (F2 would entail going all the way around Terminal 2 or going under it). There are stairs and signs marking it. It's not on the overhead signs though.

I guess that's why I've never noticed it with no overhead signage. I am on a flight in Aug. from CVG to SFO via ORD and the CVG flight usually arrives near E2, and the SFO flight generally departs from Concourse C. This shuttle should save some walking. Any idea how long the wait is between shuttles? As for signage, if it's not marked overhead, what should I be looking for? Thanks.

Check out the ORD layout in Hemispheres magazine for the exact location. There is definitely some signage around it, but I walked by it a bunch of times before noticing it.

On the E side (it's E3, edited my initial post), IIRC, it's near a bank of monitors (maybe even behind the bank a little) and in the gate area. Not out on the councourse hallway. The key is to look for a staircase that goes down.

Thank you for the information on the shuttle, it's location, and what to look for. I am glad I asked this question, this will save a lot of walking.
