  • Travel into Midway
    May 20, 2013

    I will be traveling from 1244 N Dearborn Pkwy into Midway on Thursday morning. I need to be there around 10am. I am not taking a flight however, I am boarding a Charter bus to Peoria. As I have never been to this airport or Chicago in general, I was wondering what the easiest way to get to the pickup area would be via public transportation. I assume this Charter bus leaves where all of the others do (lower level by skywalk/parking building. Would I take the red line to Orange line? Where would I go from there? Thanks so much for your help!

    need a shuttle or something from mdw to sycamore illinios

     

    There is no scheduled shuttle from MDW to Sycamore. You'll either have to arrange for a taxi (flat rate is about $100) or Take the CTA Orange Line to Washington and Wells, then take the METRA UP-W train from Ogilvie Transit Center to Elburn, which is 15 miles east of Sycamore. There is no scheduled public transportation service to Sycamore.

    what is the cheapest way from Midway Airport to Hyatt Hoffman Estates Hotel

     

    Take a cab, it is not so cheapest but the easiest and the comfort way to get into the hotel.

     

    It might be cheaper to rent a car than take a cab both ways, depending on how long you're staying. It's a LONG trip. Probably a $65 cab ride.

    What is the cheapest way to get from Naperville to Midway

     

    Take the Metra train to Naperville - either the commuter train running in intervals throughout the day, or express service which runs during the morning and evening commutes. Express trains can travel from the Route 59 Metra Station to Union Station in less than 45 minutes and from the Naperville Metra Station in less than 35 minutes.

    Pls let me know what bus/train to take to get to Otsego, Michigan from MDW. Thanks for your help.

     

    1. You can stop by the information counter in the arrivals area of Midway Airport for transportation options. 2. Midway is served by the L train - you can board the Orange Line trains, which run to downtown Chicago and the Loop (total time 25 mins) in the terminal's station, where you can also catch the CTA buses. 3. Head for Chicago's Main Train Station and take Amtrak to Kalamazoo (459 N.Burdick Street - 12.6 km from Otsego. (google Amtrak for timetable). 4. Of course, you could also take a connecting flight to Kalamazoo/Battle Creek International Airport - 13 miles from Otsego.

    Is the best way to South Bend from MDW by South Shore Line Passenger Service? If so, how do I get to South Shore Line from MDW? Thanks

     

    You need first to get to Chicago's train terminal using either shuttle, train or bus: (a) The Continental Airport Express (312-454-7800 or 800-654-7871) offers door-to-door service every 15 minutes; (b) Midway is served by the L train.; you can board the Orange Line trains, which run to downtown Chicago and the Loop (total time 25 ins) in the terminal' station, where you can also catch the CTA buses. I suggest that on arrival you pass by the information counter located at Lower Level Arrivals door LL3. (You can also search for South Shore Line scheduyles by visiting amtrak.com.

    Can you catch a train from MDW to Michigan City??

     

    Amtrak's 'Wolverine' train departs from Chicago's Union Station, stopping at Michigan City and connecting to its commuter South Shore Line of the NICTD (Northern Indiana Commuter Transportation District). At MDW, take taxi, shuttle or bus to Union Station. For more Amtrak info search google "Amtrak Illinois".

Where can I catch that exact shuttle, what times do they run, and what is the price? Also is there a price for a 2 year old to ride the shuttle as well? I am flying tomorrow so a prompt response would be GREATLY appreciated!

     

    Midway is served by the L train.; you can board the Orange Line trains, which run to downtown Chicago and the Loop (total time 25 ins) in the terminal' station. 2-year olds are free. You can also stop by at the Information counter in the Arrivals area to get detailed info.

    What is the longest distance EAST of Midway to where you will pick-up and drop off passengers (and is it usually a hotel site?)

     

    Does this help: 1. If you are picking up a passenger from the Airport, use the free 90-space Cell Phone Lot located at 61st/Cicero Avenue, just south of the main airport entrance. Stay with your vehicle until your party collected luggage and calls you to be picked up at the curb. 2. the Economy Parking Garage is on 55th/Laramie Avenue. 3. Economy parking yellow and red lots are on 55th Street, served by free shuttle buses every 15 minutes, 24/7. Shuttle bus stops have numbered signs--note down this number for your return to the lot.
