    I chose "DMV Logistics, inc" to drive me to and from Chicago's O'Hare airport. This was a very nice service and they had the best rates which included gratuity.

    I had been a bit apprehensive in regards to the weight of my luggage. I bought lighter weight luggage for just this reason. I did not have to struggle on and off a crowded shared bus going to many other hotels before mine. I arrived on time, collected my luggage and went to the middle median strip to await the driver. He was prompt, courteous and knowledgeable about Chicago. The vehicle was a Town Car which was most comfortable and quiet. I got to and from the airport with the greatest of ease.

    On the return trip the company called me and arranged an earlier pick up time as the weather was trying to turn nasty. It was perfect for me as I had garnered a late check out time I could then stay in my room until the very last minute.

    Next time you are in Chicago and need a ride, I highly recommend DMV Logistics

    Airport Shuttles: The easiest way to get to downtown Chicago

    If you arrive by plane and really don't feel like lugging your suitcase on the train, getting on a GO Airport Express shuttle probably is the most convenient way to get to your hotel in downtown Chicago. Their counters are located in the baggage claim areas and for $27 (or less if you're traveling with other people), they'll take you straight to your hotel - it's therefore a better option than going by taxi, especially since you don't have to worry about the fare running high if you get stuck in traffic. The minivans fit about 8 people so you might have to make a few stops depending on where your hotel is located compared with the other passengers' hotels. On a relatively traffic-free day, it can take anywhere between 30 to 45 minutes to reach your hotel. It's also possible to buy a return ticket if you want the shuttle to pick you up at the end of your stay. Online reservations are available, but not required.

    Airport Shuttles: MyShareRide.com -Transportation to O'Hare & Midway
  • By gxj007 on July 30, 2007

  • MyShareRide.com allows travelers to share town cars to O'Hare and Midway for less than the cost of a cab. You're paired with only 1 or 2 passengers, so the total commute time is really short. It's a cool site that allows you to get town car service for about the same cost as an airport shuttle.

    Chicago's two airports are quite a distance from downtown. In order to avoid the expense of taking a taxi from the airport to your hotel, there are a couple of options. One of these is the Continental Express airport shuttle. For a cost of $44 round trip (as of May, 2005), you can get round trip transportation from the airport to your hotel. The price is lower per person depending on the number of people in your group, so book reservations together if possible. You can either make reservations in advance or find one of the kiosks in the baggage claim area of the airport, book the trip and then take the next departing shuttle. The trip takes up to an hour since it stops at several hotels and it depends on when it stops at yours. The shuttles also stop at most major downtown hotels at least once an hour, but its a good idea to confirm the shuttle stop times or to make a reservation for return transportation in advance.

    Airport Shuttles: Shuttle - Continental Airport Express

    I found this company after some helpful VT'ers responded to a query in the Forum.

    I booked a one-way trip from O'Hare to my hotel ($21) via their web based rservation service and was pleasantly suprised not to be asked to pay up-front.

    On arrival at O'Hare, I found my way to their booth outside Terminal 5. It's was't very well marked and I had to check to make sure I wasn't in the wrong place but the attendant confirmed that I had found them.

    I said that I had made a reservation but no effort was made to check this, he merely wanted to know whether I had already paid. When I said not, he stated the price and I paid.

    After a 20 minute wait, the shuttle van arrived and the other customers and I were loaded in.

    You don't really need details of the journey except to say that the driver knew his way around and was polite and happy to talk to visitors. He confirmed that a taxi would have cost at least twice the price of a shuttle.

    To summarise, the operation seemed a little slipshod & disorgained but, overall, I have no complaints. I would recommend
