Exploring the NEW O'Hare TERMINAL 5 Expansion & Renovation!

*CLICK "CC" TO WATCH WITH SUBTITLES*

Chicago O'Hare's Terminal 5 is the main international terminal for the airport. It opened in 1993 with 21 gates but eventually, that number proved to be inadequate with the sheer increase in traffic at the airport. As part of the airport's mega $8.5 billion "ORD21" expansion project, Terminal 5 will receive a $1 billion upgrade including a new extended area. We explore all of the renovations of T5 in this video, so without any further ado I hope you enjoy this tour!

I really love the design. Gives a nod to the 60s Jet Age terminals like JFK TWA hotel.

[UlisesShah]

It still is interesting how terminal 5 fits all of the international flights, as well as flights from Delta, Southwest, and Frontier.

[jhelinski]

Wow such a great video! It’s the first video I’ve found that shows how the existing areas on T5 will be renovated. They look so much better. Love all the new retail as well. And of course the expansion is breathtaking.
Keep up the good work making videos. Great job.

Thank you for this excellent video tour of T5! I've used it three times, flying Delta. The Delta gates are a big improvement over the cramped and crowded gate areas in T2. The CTA station is under T2, so a ride on the ORD Transit train is necessary for passengers taking the Blue Line to and from Chicago. T5 is actually more convenient for connecting to Metra at the O'Hare Transfer station (but the Metra service is limited).

Your a true Chicagoan, I love this city and I’m for all projects that’s going to help this city grow. Fingers crossed the Lincoln Yards project gets completed.

[Engelbird]

will be flying Delta out of ORD in October, your video was a big help. thanks!

[hymztsf]

Your clip is most helpful! Thank you!!

Terminal 5 has slot of potential cant wait to see it when i go to my nexttrip

I have been into the expansion and it was beautiful

[jonathanbott]

Flew after the expansion hallway was completed - they cleaned it up nicely. The hallways are wide and one straight shot, plus there's bidirectional moving walkways (not just the one-way in the vid).

[andykillsu]

Wow the new part of Terminal 5 looks pretty amazing already with the openness and natural light it has. This just makes me even more excited to what the new Global Terminal 2 will be.

[marcusyoung]

Did you happen to see the Terminal Transfer Bus stop at gate M13? It's great there's a way to get to the other terminals airside. I'm guessing there's an elevator to get down to ground level. Thanks for a detailed and helpful video.

I fly Delta and I am impressed with Delta's new gates. They are much better than Terminal 2.

[kentfrederick]

When the terminal opened, it had gates from M1 to M21. A friend who flies for American said that the cost of putting a plane into Terminal 5 varied, depending on how far the gate was from the center of the terminal. Because American has traditionally been frugal, the running joke among AA pilots was whether a flight would be assigned to M1 or M21. Either had the longest walk to immigration and customs.

[csunil]

This is all good for ORD, way into the future. Been through O'Hare a couple of times in the 1990's. Even then, it was quite impressive.

[ChongQingWu]

Thanks for this latest report on the ORD T5 expansion! Just a few months ago, I experienced huge traffic deadlock at the T5 arrival curbside. So my question is if the curbside improvement has been completed to match the expanded gates/flights.

[Rahul-przr]

The problem with T-5 is that waiting area is far too small to handle the load before going through the gates. Not sure if that is being addressed as part of this expansion/renovation. ORD attracts people from different states since it's one of the few international hubs in the US. If you've a long layover at ORD good luck waiting until the gates are opened. My tip is to spend that time in the domestic terminal before transferring over.

[angelavanhorn]

Thank you. Please help provided how to find gate going to MN on United Airlines. 🇺🇸🙏

[maycherrie]

any place in terminal 5 where you can buy sim and also ticket counter to purchase a ticket

[flipicaneze]

I feel that the first impression to any tourist is the airport. Compared to what I had seen in Hong Kong, South Korea and Manila, Philippines, the new terminal doesn't leave a very impressive impression.
