15 mins before boarding starts

5am is usually the perfect time, no traffic, security takes no more than 5-10 min and group 1 boards at 520

like

5:15-5:30

Not always. Been on that 6am ORD departure grind for 10 months and sometimes the pre line can be up to 10-15m... When you board at 5:15, you might be screwed if you have a carry on

like

4.12am

With Pre-check its a breeze but it depends what gate. If leaving out C terminal (gates C9 or below or C25 or above) i would take into account a good 15 minutes to go from B terminal to C and to the gates (C10 to C23 are in close to the pathway you get out off). If leaving out of B then its less time. I always aim at 30 min before boarding to account for any walking to the gates or any gate change or mistakes (once I thought I was leaving out of C terminal and get to the usual gate to find out I am leaving out of B)

Thanks, D1! A1...LOL

Am i like the only person who likes to get to the airport an hour before boarding? I like to check a bag and sit in the lounge

Theres less anxiety because i dont have to drag it around and worry about overhead space, and i can pack more things like my pillow
