Where the ride downtown ends

Off the plane, into the car
Your suitcase goes into the back at the terminal curb while you settle into the rear seat.

A face at baggage claim
After a long flight, meet & greet means someone is waiting by the carousel with your name and a free hand for the luggage.

Straight to a Loop meeting
Land in the morning and walk into a LaSalle Street conference room without a taxi line in between.

O'Hare to Downtown Chicago
O'Hare to downtown Chicago car service, door to door
The drive from O'Hare into the city is about 18 miles, and it ends wherever you are staying: a hotel canopy in River North, a residential tower on the Gold Coast or an office lobby in the Loop. Tell us which entrance you want and the car stops there, so you are never left across a busy avenue from your hotel with three suitcases.
Book the ride back to O'Hare when you book the arrival. The departure pickup is timed around the weekday rush on the Kennedy, and both legs carry a price you see before you confirm, with no surge pricing at any hour.
- About 35 minutes to the Loop without traffic
- Flight tracking and 1 hour of free waiting
- Curbside pickup or meet & greet at baggage claim
- Drop-off at any downtown hotel, office or home
24/7FAQ
O'Hare to Downtown Chicago: questions
Still deciding? Call (331) 356-3856 any hour, or start a booking to see your options.
How long is the drive from O'Hare to downtown Chicago?
About 35 minutes to the Loop, River North or the Gold Coast without traffic, and about 40 to McCormick Place. At weekday rush hour, allow longer; your chauffeur plans the route on the day.
Can you drop me at my downtown hotel's front entrance?
Yes. Give us the hotel name when you book, and the car pulls up at its entrance or drive while the chauffeur brings your bags to the door.
Do I need to call when I land at O'Hare?
No. Your chauffeur already has the flight and sees when it lands. You receive their details before the pickup, so a quick message once you have your bags is all it takes.
Can I book the ride back to O'Hare at the same time?
Yes. Book both legs together and each shows its price before you confirm. For the ride out, the pickup time allows for the traffic on the Kennedy at that hour.
Why book a car instead of a taxi from O'Hare to downtown?
The fare is fixed before you book, with no surge pricing, the car is already waiting when you walk out, and nobody stands in a taxi line after a long flight.
Which one fits?

Sedan · 2 seats
One traveler with a roller bag
The sedan takes 2 passengers and 3 bags, which covers a business trip into the Loop or a weekend at a Michigan Avenue hotel. It pulls into a crowded hotel drive without fuss.
Book the Sedan
Escalade SUV · 6 seats
A family, or a week of luggage
When a family lands together, or two people land with a pile of suitcases, the Escalade carries 6 with 6 bags, so the whole party reaches the Gold Coast or Streeterville in one car.
Book the Escalade SUV
Executive Sprinter · 14 seats
A team arriving for a conference
A group headed for meetings in the West Loop or a convention at McCormick Place can ride in together: the Executive Sprinter seats 14, and one pickup beats a line of rideshares at the curb.
