Does anyone know who handles Royal Jordanian cargo at O’Hare?
Jump to postWas down on the lake today and around 4:30 3 f-18s flew down the lakefront heading north.

Jump to postI hadn’t noticed that satellite 1 will be able to handle international arrivals before. Will these gates have dedicated customs facilities or a sterile tunnel back to the new T2 for processing ?
