So is anyone flying into Midway on May 2nd (evening)? I'll be arriving then for Chicago, wanted to see if anyone would split a cab.

Back in the day, the show arranged for a special rate with a local limo company. Anyone know if they still do this?

I was planning on flying in to Midway on the 3rd, late morning/early afternoon... Same question, anyone want to share a ride?

I believe there's a free shuttle service from both Midway and O'Hare I'm pretty sure the pheasant run website has details.

I take the train to O'Hare and catch the shuttle service to pheasant run.

Its not free but A1 Limo service works with the resort. I think its like $40 and a bit cheaper if someone else is headed there too. I'm renting a car this time.

Sounds good to me, but if the two of us hit the resort at once, it might be too much.

If you're serious, I'll look into fares. I've always reserved a limo, but I've never had plans to share. Hopefully that gets a cheaper price.

Edit: Just checked, and its $29.50 ea. shared, as opposed to $50 if you don't arrange to share.

When is your return flight, in the off chance I can book a round trip with the limo company?

I will be dressed as myself: I usually wear a sort of "homeless chic" motif, but I might neaten my beard a bit so as not to look too much like a terrorist (as they all have unruly beards).

I think my flight out is around 10:45 sunday night. I'm renting a car so if it works out you can ride with me.

Sweet! Since I'm out earlier it might not work for you you, but lets definitely talk about it.

Double checked the time, I'm on American and my flight leaves at 10:10 so that should be good. We may look funny climbing out of the $9 a day compact car I'm renting :shock:

Should be room for Awesome Markle too. I scheduled a "compact" car I just don't know how compact it will be... Nissan Versa or similar... As long as you can fit you're welcome too .
