Flights to O'Hare Intl: the best tips from KAYAK users' own experiences
Insights shared by verified travelers who flew to O'Hare Intl
If you have a connecting flight in Chicago check which terminal it boards from and transport there asap since Chicago is a huge airport. There was a very helpful very small desk tucked away downstairs that was able to assist with getting a number of passengers on an airport shuttle. I arrived at the terminal as the connecting flight was boarding. One clue, if you don't see your flight on the screen it might be at a different terminal.
Verified travelerFlew with United Airlines-Oct 2026
Check your watch carefully! I was afraid I was going to be late for my flight because I thought my watch said it was an hour later than it actually was. Also, if you need special services, like a wheelchair ride between flights, be sure you make it at the same time you make your reservation and get a confirmation for it.
MidnightFlew with American Airlines-Oct 2026

The runway to gate took a bit of time. So if you have a short layover pay for a seat up front .

Be aware that it may take you an hour after you land before you arrive at your gate at ORD.

Leave enough time for connecting in Chicago. It’s a very busy airport
Verified travelerFlew with Alaska Airlines-Aug 2026
Be prepared to have a very difficult time checking in if you are not technology savvy. I could not figure out how to check in. It made me scan with my phone to check in, but I couldn’t figure out how to do it and then an employer was there pushed buttons on the kiosk and printed up a boarding pass. Where did customer service go?! and then, we had to wait in a huge long long long line just to drop off the bag. Be certain you give yourself extra time for all of this chaos. Flying is getting worse and worse every time I fly.

Rebook before boarding or you may get stuck on plane and overnight in airport
CupcakeFlew with Alaska Airlines-Apr 2026
Please bring a water bottle for hydration during the flight.
Verified travelerFlew with American Airlines-May 2026
Don’t plan on using overhead bin space if you board after group 4 on any American flights using 737’s. They are frequently full by the time the 4th group boards. And, if your carry on bag has to be checked at the gate, be sure it has nothing breakable inside, as it may not survive that process.

Chicago has a enormous airport so be ready to walk and transfer to international flights by train via terminal
Dr. JosephFlew with United Airlines-Apr 2026
Always keep track of the weather at both locations and where the inbound flight is coming from.

Arrive airport early, esp if checking bags - std procedure but vital here
Verified travelerFlew with United Airlines-Apr 2026
Make sure the flight you select has more than 3 hours as time allotted for transiting to another flight. Most of United Airlines flights get delayed and if you don’t have enough time, you’ll be missing the next flight for sure. Have extra budget for shelter expenses because most of the economy tickets does not qualify for shelter accommodation/ voucher when your flight is delayed.

Flight is conjusted. Difficult to sleep. Carry pillows and sleep well beforeyou travel
StephenFlew with United Airlines-Jan 2026
If you're trying to make a connecting flight make sure you allow PLENTY of time between flights or be prepared to miss the next flight. Make sure to use the restroom at the last possible moment before landing because you could be sitting on the taxiway for 5 more minutes... 5 more minutes... 5 more minutes... until it's been nearly 2 hours. Don't trust the airline provided ETA provided by apps they don't update it until long after you're delayed. If someone is showing up to give you a ride, make sure they have hours to wait for you.
JeremyFlew with United Airlines-Nov 2025
Beware short connection times on flights connecting in Chicago.

Don’t be that person who holds up the plane because of your carry on. Whether putting in over bin (able to lift it on your own) or refusing to not listen when space is full and need to check it.
