All 3 Mcdonald's Closed By 10

Left DFW at 5PM. Got to ORD at 930. I don't depart until midnight. How is it even possible that there is *literally* nothing to eat except for vending machine fare? Google lied to me and now I'm hangry.

1 hour layover with a puppy

I have a one hour layover with the puppy at O’Hare. Flying in on a small United Express Bombardier CRJ200 to Denver on a large United Boeing 757-300. Can I make it? I’ve never been in that airport before, any tips or tricks to navigate most efficiently?

T3 TSA Pre at 0500

Only one ID checker and one scanning line. Line for entry into the queue is almost to priority.

If you have touchless ID, that had its own line once you got to the real queue entry. However since the regular line was moving so slowly, it took a while to get there. Use touchless if able!

Paid Lounge access at ORD?

Is there any good paid Lounge access areas at ORD? I'm not flying United, so I don't think I can pay for the United Club.

Is my layover long enough to go through customs and change terminals?

Hi! I'm currently researching international flights for an upcoming trip to Kenya. I'm looking at a return flight that has two layovers, one in Brussels (BRU) and one in Chicago (ORD). The OHare layover is 2h 13m and requires a terminal change from terminal 5 to terminal 1. Is this enough time to go through customs in terminal 5, switch to terminal 1, and go possibly need to go back through TSA? I'm assuming it would be cutting it way too close based on other international travel experiences I've had. Any insight would be super helpful! Thank you!
