Looking to book a flight for next summer.
A two hour five minute international to domestic connection on UA should be fine as long as the flight is on time?
Have they finally added a Global Entry line at customs after baggage claim or is it still front of the line to dirty looks?
thanks.

The GE line is all the way to the right after retrieving your bags.

Agreed. It is the exit line that is directly in front of the east exit door (nearest the UA re-check counters). On my last arrival in August, there was not a dedicated CBP person to handle GE exit line, the person was one of two handling the normal passengers and would stop and take care of any GE passengers as they came up.

ORD Experts: Access T1 with T5 intl departure?
Hi all ORD Experts
Departing in a few days from ORD T5 with SK.
Once I have the SK boarding pass, can I go through security at T1 and use the United lounge? I have a friend departing same time.
I believe they have a transfer bus (within restricted area) from T3 to T5, which I will use (opererates until 8pm).
Question is, if I can pass security at T1 with SK boarding pass, as it departs from T5?
Thanks
HJ

TSA will typically let you in, although they are not required to. If they question you, you can just say you’re going to the Polaris lounge.
i think the shuttle from T3 to T5 might be operated by AA and require an AA boarding pass. I’m only about 20% confident in that and have never used the T3 to T5 shuttle. But double check, as there’s a chance you may need to clear security twice.

You will have to clear security twice. That shuttle is only for AA and their JV partners I believe.

Not sure what the shuttle situation is now. The AA/BA shuttle, or maybe it’s for all OW now, used to require valid BPs. I thought though there is supposed to be a new, non-airline specific shuttle that is supposed to start, run by the Airport itself - not sure if it actually has started or not, or where it leaves from if it is. I think there was a thread somewhere else, maybe in a Chicago forum somewhere?

I have also read it was initiated started by AA, but then I found on flychicago.com, that:"
Transfer Bus Service Terminal 3 Pickup Locations
Gate G17 and Gate K20"
It does not mentioned specifically anymore...
International Connections
The International Terminal 5 is not connected to the domestic terminals and is accessible via the Airport Transit System (ATS). If you arrive on a domestic flight and must connect to an international flight, you have two options: 1.) you can take the ATS and pass through the security checkpoint in Terminal 5 or 2.) you can take a transfer bus from Terminal 3 to Terminal 5 and bypass the security checkpoint in Terminal 5. The transfer bus service is year round with operation hours as follows: 10:30 am - 8 pm.Transfer Bus Service Terminal 3 Pickup Locations

Although I can’t speak to the transfer bus, I just used an OZ boarding pass to clear security at T1 to use the Polaris Lounge on Thursday with no issue. I then went through security a second time in T5 after using the ATS. Had no issues.

The bus is now funded by the airport, so it's open to all passengers. I had no issues using it with a ticket printout (not even a BP) for a AS-TK connection, and TK issued me the boarding pass at the gate.
In fact, the Polaris lounge let me in with a ticket printout too. They wrote down my ticket number, gave TK a call, typed a few things in the computer, and cheerfully let me in. I was very appreciative that I didn't have to go through security twice..

TSA policy is that so long as you have a valid came day & same station BP (or other appropriate document) for any checkpoint, you may pass through any other checkpoint.
It is entirely possible that an Officer may point out that you are at the "wrong" checkpoint because most people who do this are at the wrong checkpoint. This is not a denial of entry, simply a courtesy.
This has been policy for 5+ years, so Officers should know, but ask for a supervisor if need be.

While that is supposed to be the way it works there remain sporadic reports of pax being denied at various terminals. It should be fine, but every now and then things go badly.

layover time at ORD: UA connecting to ANA
IThis is my 1st time to fly out ORD internationally. Do i get enough layover time at ORD ? Which concourse B or C is for ANA departure ?
I'm a 1K member. is it possible to have the same day flight change/rerouting if there's no flight delayed? I know ANA 777-300ER seats are not good.
