Which airport is better for a conference: Midway or O'Hare?

[chefmelody]

Which airport is better to fly into for conference? I usually like to fly Southwest, which goes into Midway, but none of their "cheap" flights are available for the dates I'm wanting to go. (Sunday arrive, Wednesday leave.) I can usually get a flight for about $100 round-trip from them, but right now the cheapest they've got is $74 each way! American Airlines is $98 round-trip, but they fly into O'Hare.

I know O'Hare has a lot of shuttles for hotels, though. Do any of the conference hotels have a shuttle from there?

I have done both, I think it is best to just go with what is cheapest

Midway is easier (smaller) but O'Hare isn't terrible.

There will be plenty of shuttles and plenty of other PC folks around to share a shuttle or cab.

Or, you can take the blue line train for like $2. Once they announce hotels, I'll be posting door to door directions for the trains.
