Chicago is served by two main airports with distinct roles. O'Hare International (ORD) is the city's primary international and connecting hub, typically handling long-haul and legacy-carrier traffic from United, American and many global airlines; it can be perceived as mid- to higher-priced for transfers and some fares. O'Hare sits about 17–18 miles northwest of downtown; travelers usually take the CTA Blue Line train (roughly 45–60 minutes, fares around $2.50), express and local buses, taxis or rideshares (30–60 minutes, fares varying widely). Pros: extensive international connections and many amenities; cons: can be large and busy, with longer transfers. Midway (MDW) functions as a more budget- and domestic-focused airport, commonly used by low-cost carriers like Southwest and by regional services. It’s located about 10 miles southwest of downtown, often a 20–35 minute drive in normal traffic; public transit options include the CTA Orange Line (about 25–35 minutes, fares around $2.50), buses, taxis and rideshares. Midway can offer lower fares and quicker curb-to-gate times on domestic routes, but it has fewer international flights and fewer long-haul amenities compared with O'Hare.

Miguel Hidalgo y Costilla International Airport (GDL) is Guadalajara’s main international gateway and typically serves a mix of full-service and low-cost carriers connecting Mexico, the U.S., and parts of Latin America. Located about 16–20 km (roughly 25–35 minutes) from downtown Guadalajara, transfer options usually include taxis, airport shuttles, app-based rides and local buses; travel times vary with traffic and fares can range from modest bus fares to moderate taxi/ride-share prices. The airport is generally seen as a convenient regional hub with basic passenger amenities and several dining and shopping choices. Pros: straightforward connections and good low-cost service options; cons: peak-hour congestion and occasional delays getting into the city.
