I am thrilled about this. Not that I would ever really have a need for renting a car at ORD, but the antiquated system of balkanized surface lots and endlessly roving, gas-belching mini-buses just needs to go -- if for nothing else than to be more hospitable to visitors during blizzards and bitter cold (wait, do we have winter anymore?). Not long ago I was craning my neck at LAX arrivals waiting for a Hertz shuttle and it took like a half-hour, not helped by the fact that other commercial minibuses also use the yellow livery scheme. One frequent, unified shuttle, to one indoor facility, will work great. Obviously getting the ATS out there would make it even better.

Plus, it adds a new shiny construction project at ORD -- the first new public building there in 20 years (T5, 1993) I think?
