Hey all! I'm curious as to how everyone during the 1st 2 waves got to and from the airport and the Towers? I leave Lexington, KY @ a little after 1pm on Saturday and my DH is driving me crazy about the travel arrangements. I've called my director AT LEAST a dozen times this week so far, so I thought I'd ask you all!

Thanks in advance!
 
There is s huttle for $34 each way per person or you can grab a bunch of people and split a cab.

That's a GREAT deal Susan!! I am giong to look for other Cheffers at the airport when I arrive!! Why did you have to be in a different wave than me!?!?!?
 
I get into Midway Airport at about 3:30 on Saturday. Me and another consultant were going to take the subway to the Sheraton Towers...$4.00. There's walking of about .1 miles after you get off but thats nothing!
 
My group got a tip from a flight attendant who is cousins with a fellow cluster member. We took the "L", and it was only $2 per person! Now, make sure you know which stop you need...just ask someone where you get your ticket. The stop we got off at was only 1 block from the Palmer. It was a fun way to experience the city. (I wouldn't do it at night though!:eek: )
We took a shuttle back to the airport...if you have a group it is $12 per person.

The "L" is what I'm wanting to do, but since I'm with the group I guess that I'll be doing what the group wants!

Has anyone taken the "L" from OHare?
 
Airport Express Discount CouponsAnyone who might be considering taking the Airport Express Shuttle from the airport to the downtown hotels should visit www.airportexpress.com and print out the $2.00 off coupon! It might save you a couple of bucks off of your fare, making it more reasonable.

See you in Chicago!!!:)
