Chicago is served by two major airports with distinct roles. O’Hare International (ORD) is a large international hub handling many long-haul and connecting flights and typically hosts legacy carriers like United and American alongside numerous global airlines; fares can range widely depending on season and routing. Midway (MDW) functions more as a domestic and lower-cost gateway, often favored by leisure travellers flying airlines such as Southwest. O’Hare sits about 17–20 miles northwest of downtown (roughly 30–60 minutes by car or 45–60 minutes by CTA Blue Line; airport shuttles and taxis are common), while Midway lies about 10 miles southwest (roughly 20–40 minutes by car or 25–35 minutes via CTA Orange Line). O’Hare can be very busy but offers extensive amenities and connections; Midway is typically easier to navigate and closer to the city but has fewer long-haul options.

The cost of a one-way flight from Baku to Chicago ranges from $456 (February 2026) to $689 (December 2025). On average, the ticket price is about $571–$1,256.
