Extremely short layover in Chicago
 

I am flying home from my study abroad program in nine days. I am getting really worried because I just noticed that the flight my Dad scheduled for me only has a 1 hour and 15 minute layover between my flight in from Dublin that lands in Terminal 5 to my connecting flight to Detroit in Terminal 3. I emailed Aer Lingus and they said that if I booked on the same itinerary my luggage would be checked through, but I have been seeing some posts that make me think that isn't so. Do you think I have enough time to make my flight?:confused:

You preclear customs and immigration in Dublin

Get to the airport early.

Thank you!!!

Do you know if I will still have to go through the process of getting my checked bag and handing it back over or will it just go through like any normal flight?

Having cleared USCBP, passengers arriving in the US are treated as domestic arrivals, which allows for a faster processing through their arrival airport in the United States including the checking through of any baggage to the traveller’s final destination.
