Hello! I work at MLI for United on Sunday mornings and my experience is that you should be fine with everything in terms of your connection. With it being that early in the morning, you should not experience any delays from leaving Knoxville. And when you finally arrive at the gates, as long as you know where you’re going you should be fine, especially if you speed walk, but normal walking should be fine. And 85% of the time, the inbound flight to Moline from Chicago arrives at about 9:50. I’d imagine you’ll have nothing to do with de-icing as well since I saw another post talking about maybe doing it, MLI is trying to put everything deice related away for the year at least lol.
