Flight

Flying in to Chicago

There are two Chicagoland airports that are accessible by public transportation as well as by car-- Midway and O'Hare. There are no travel advantages to flying into one or the other. Downtown Chicago is roughly 45 minutes from both airports. We especially recommend taking public transportation (the train) from Midway and O'Hare during rush hour. If you have questions about taking the train -- text Sam or Kat and we can give you the low down (it's very easy and safe.) If you prefer to take a car, we recommend getting a cab from the airport cab line rather than an uber/lyft. It is faster and easier.

Travel Note

Where to Stay

We recommend choosing a hotel within a few blocks of the Grand Red Line stop in River North. There are dozens of hotels in this area at various price points. If you have questions about a specific hotel, let us know! This area of River North is well located for both exploring Chicago and using transit for the weekend events. We will be booking a hotel block for those who prefer, but there will not be any events at this hotel or any other hotel. We encourage you to choose a spot that works for you!
