This is an amazing airport! Well organized. Great signage. Stores, restaurants and conveniences are well situated. Lots of restrooms. It's busy and we experienced an hour+ delay in our layover. That was frustrating. Clean too!
Had a one hour layover at this airport and it is fairly easy to move around in with lots of space. The design of the concourse is beautiful with the arches and natural lighting coming from all sides. It’s a steampunk-like concourse design. Very efficient airport with some modern features. It’s also the base airport of United Airlines so this is the signature United experience. Super cool airport!
Nice BIG airport. Lots of walking but thank goodness for rolling walkways. Takes awhile to get to the train or subway too at the airport walking. Lots to see! Love Chicago!! My playground in my earlier years...
Love Chicago international Airport. Lots of choices for Great food and drinks. Gift shops. They also offer Shuttles to hotels, Taxis and Valet. Large parking lot and a metro service right across from the Terminal. They offer first class boarding and concierge services. Overall a great airport.
Very large airport but needs some updating like the bathrooms etc.. They have a lactation pod which is pretty neat The shuttle/train connects everything which is pretty cool however expect to walk/travel between 15-20 minutes to your carousel/car rental. So if you are flying in for a last minute meeting or in a rush do not land close within that! Unless you plan on I wrong!
Large, busy airport. There are a lot of shipping options here, if that's something you'd like to arrive early or something to do on a long layover. Alternatively, the B convos had undergone remodeling with modern seating that have outlets attached. Not so much in the F concourse.
Very busy but nice airport. Had a shelter in place for a tornado warning in the area. Seemed chaotic but the employees kept everyone safe. Easy to access throughout airport. USO that was in terminal 2 was awesome!
This is definitely not my favourite US airport. It's always very busy and the shopping is very limited. Even the business class lounges are small and tired. I'm hoping they will do an upgrade soon. I would spend as little time here as possible. Definitely visit the nearby outlet mall though.
It's busy, it's loud and a little confusing to navigate. The duty free shop was closed that day, but there was this candy store with nice gift ideas. Everything was expensive as expected from a big US airport, so better eat first before you get there.
As a US citizen, if you arrive at an airport that has the look and feel of a developing nation, but doesn’t require a passport and has no immigration checkpoints from your gate to baggage claim, don’t be confused, you might be at O’Hare. On arrival, I walked far enough in one direction past do not enter signs on moving walkways headed the opposite direction to think I had missed the signs to ground transportation, or at least missed the train to baggage claim. Nope. No train to baggage claim, just an unending walk in a narrow, constantly curving hallway until eventually there is a very narrow escape route to baggage claim and eventually the street…where they don’t let ride share pick you up despite all the airport signage indicating otherwise. Not to worry, there is one sign propped up against a bus shelter saying ride share has moved to terminal 2 and you need to take something called an ATS which is on a different level. No mention of what terminal or level you are currently at or on. Thankfully the third airport employee I found was able to assist, I had to go “up to the top and get on the train”. So I found options for going up, and boarded a train that mentioned terminal 2. It was here that I met other passengers from the same flight, one who had a friend in Chicago texting helpful information. Following the text messages and looking for coherent signage while going up and then down multiple levels, we found a train going to chicago and I abandoned my ride share quest entirely. Overall it was nice that I didn’t need a passport or have to exchange currency. And they get 4 stars because the Clear + Pre-check lines were efficient on the return. But in terms of airports, I wouldn’t consider O’Hare a joy to navigate.
