This time, calm at O'Hare as travel ban takes effect

As the Trump administration's revised travel ban went into effect Thursday night, the mood at the arrival gate of O'Hare Airport's International Terminal was a far cry from what it was six months earlier when the first version of the ban was put in place.

There were no throngs of protesters marching along the roadway outside the terminal, but there were loved ones hugging after their reunion.

Instead of the dozens of attorneys setting up camp to help those detained, there were only five, working to gather information about travelers who might have experienced setbacks.

As of 8:45 p.m. there were no reported detentions, according to Iman Boundaoui, one of the attorneys in the terminal.
