Thanks shaja!
That's a very good idea...hadn't thought of the O'Hare Hilton.
I'll have to pull the airport map and check the walking distance.
You're right, a food court isn't "ideal" for a 30-year+ "reunion". Thought it was better than nothing...
But, I'm just too antsy about leaving the "campus" and ending up missing my flight home. I simply won't be traveling with the budget needed to do an overnight (or pay for a new ticket) if I miss it.
...Love them dearly, but it's not worth that!
Anyway, I'll keep my eyes peeled. Thanks again!
Blessings...

Looking for someone familiar with the ORD terminals through which I'll be traveling this week.

I've got hopes of meeting up, during a home-bound 5-hour International flight lay-over, with a couple of old high school pals.

Since I'll likely have a couple of hours tied up in T5 (Baggage, Customs, and re-Check), I'll only have about 3 left to spend. I'm leaving from T3 there on the domestic leg.
Not really interested in going "off-campus" anywhere for lunch...just not enough time to do that AND get back through T3 Security...assuming that'll take up to an hour...so now I'm down to about 1.5 "spendable hours" with walk-time.

So, I'd like to know if there's anywhere "decent" to meet, in T3, that's accessible to the public (non-flyers) where we could meet, for an hour+ "late-lunch", such that I could comfortably get back through Security for my domestic flight home.

Thanks in advance!
...Any responses welcomed!
