    About TSA Security at O'Hare International

    O'Hare International features domestic terminals 1, 2, and 3 as well as international Terminal 5. All terminals have TSA PreCheck lanes. Terminal 3, which serves United Airlines, consistently reports the highest wait times on busy travel days. Terminal 5 requires a separate security process with Customs and Border Protection for arriving international passengers. O'Hare's layout can require significant walking between concourses — verify your gate before clearing security. The ATS (Airport Transit System) tram connects terminals post-security.
