## Insider tips

- _Insider_: The neon ‘Sky’s the Limit’ tunnel between Terminals 1 B and C is a must-see. Walk on the left side near the moving walkways to save time.
- _Local_: Tortas Frontera, in Terminals 1 and 3, is a favorite for authentic Chicago flavors. Avoid the long lines by ordering through the airport app.
- _Quiet_: For some peace, head to the far ends of Terminal 2 near F gates away from the crowded central concourses.
- _Time_: United flyers can avoid long security lines by exiting Terminal 1 and re-clearing at faster Terminal 2 or 3 lines, walking back airside.
- _Money_: Save on transport with the CTA Blue Line to downtown, costing just $2.50-$5.00 with consistent travel times.
- _Avoid_: Receptive road warriors dodge crowded rideshare pickup zones by walking to less busy Terminal 2 from the main United doors in Terminal 1.
- _Quiet_: The Yoga Room in Terminal 3 offers a peaceful retreat if you're dealing with a long layover.
- _Time_: Connecting to Terminal 5? Allocate extra time for security and the ATS ride.
