Flight

O'Hare International Airport

Chicago has two airports. While Midway is closer, O'Hare typically offers more flights on more airlines. It is easy to take public transit (The Blue Line) into the city. Renting a car would be a good option if you plan to do some sightseeing in other parts of the city outside of downtown and the immediate surrounding areas.

Flight

Midway International Airport

Midway airport is nestled within the city and if you have a preference for Southwest airlines, this is where you will (likely) be flying in. Public transit (The Orange Line) is available from this airport as well as rental cars.
