Question
What is the best mode of transportation if flying into O’Hare International Airport?
Answer
Uber/Lyft is an option with ride pickups being on departure level outside of Terminal 2. Please be mindful that this option typically runs high cost with surcharges and city taxes. There is also major construction being done on Interstate 90 that is causing long delays on your way into the city. We recommend checking traffic times when looking into rideshare.
