Switching Terminals

I couldn't find the answer to this during my search, so hopefully someone can help.

My wife has to switch from terminal 1 to terminal 2 to catch the next leg of her trip. The particular flight she is on has been landing in the low B's (i.e. B7). From this point, how would she get to terminal 2 for her flight that has been leaving from the low F's.

She is not a travelor, so she is terrified of the possibility of getting lost in ORD.

Terminal map is at http://www.chicagotraveler.com/chica...irport-map.htm. Not hard to walk from 1 to 2.

Stay airside, there is a walkway near B5 to T2.

There's only one way - just follow the overhead signs to terminal 2. She might be advised that there is a bus from the C concourse in terminal 1 to the E concourse in terminal 2. This will be more walking/take longer than just walking if she comes into a B gate.

Keep in mind there is no rhyme or reason to arrival gates at ORD...it's purely coincidence the flight has been arriving in the low Bs...

The walk between terminals (particularly if she does arrive into a B gate) is very easy. Whichever gate she does arrive at, tell her to (staying airside) walk toward gates B5/B6. There's a walkway (she'll walk past the security checkpoint enroute to the walkway from those gates) which connects the terminals. It's fairly well marked at that point, IIRC.
