On a recent business trip, I had the opportunity to explore the Chicago O'Hare Airport (ORD) on a four-hour layover and I would like to share a few of my discoveries and tips. First of all, the airport is huge! I didn't get the chance to check out all of the terminals and concourses on my visit, but I did explore G, K, and L a bit as I was wandering about, waiting for my flight.
Tip #1 – Make sure your phone and laptop are charged before you arrive at the airport. My phone was down to 6% before I finally found a charging station near the Starbucks by the security area (I think it is Terminal 3). Electrical outlets are few and far between and the ones that I did find either didn't work (worn out, no juice, etc.) or were in use.
Tip #2 – Eat at Wolfgang Puck's. I ordered the turkey melt and I was very impressed. They put thyme on the French fries, which was pretty neat.
Tip #3 – Use the family/companion restroom. It is clean and they have this neat automatic plastic toilet seat cover that changes when you wave your hand. It’s also in a quiet part of the airport so you don’t need to feel hurried/rushed if you have to change clothes, wash up, etc.
