Chicago is served by three main airports with different roles. O’Hare International (ORD) is the city’s primary international hub and a major transfer point for legacy carriers such as United and American; fares here can be competitive for long-haul and connecting itineraries. It’s located about 17 miles northwest of downtown (roughly 30–60 minutes by road depending on traffic). Options to downtown include the Blue Line ‘L’ (about 45–60 minutes, modest fare), airport shuttles and taxis or rideshares (30–60 minutes, variable cost). Pros: extensive flight choices and facilities; cons: busy terminals and possible long connection times. Midway (MDW) functions as a budget- and leisure-oriented airport with strong presence from low-cost carriers like Southwest; it sits about 10 miles southwest of downtown (20–40 minutes by car). Transit options include the Orange Line rapid transit (about 25–35 minutes, low fare), buses and rideshares. Pros: typically faster check-in and closer proximity to the city; cons: fewer international routes and smaller terminal footprint. For some travelers regional airports and private aviation options exist farther out, but ORD and MDW cover most commercial traffic, so comparing schedules and total travel time can help determine the best choice for price and convenience.

Sharjah International Airport (SHJ) typically serves as a cost-conscious alternative to Dubai’s larger hubs, handling many regional and low-cost carriers alongside some full-service airlines. It’s positioned as a budget-friendly gateway for travelers heading to Sharjah and nearby parts of Dubai and the Northern Emirates. The airport sits roughly 15–20 km from Sharjah city centre — a drive that can take about 20–35 minutes depending on traffic. Public buses, taxis and ride-hailing services connect the airport; bus fares are usually low while taxi/ride-share trips can be noticeably higher but faster. Pros: compact terminal, shorter queues on many low-cost routes. Cons: fewer long-haul services and limited public-transit frequency compared with Dubai’s main airports.
