But there's no guarantee. And I would be careful about getting to the airport with less than 45 minutes to go. I've heard they're not letting people check after that deadline. So if you're checking bags or don't know how to check in online, I would be careful. An hour is about what it takes, we’re estimating.

If I have a flight leaving at 7:40am Saturday, would it be too risky to take the 6am shuttle? Thanks :) So how long does it take to get to Midway by van?

It is also a bit too late to change, as our funding committee has ceased meeting for the quarter. However we are hoping the ridership for this shuttle indicates that we need to add more on Thursday next quarter.

If you can only have one shuttle that day, it may be better to go earlier so more people can use it. It would be really helpful if the early morning times (5 or 6 AM) were offered on Thursday, too.

That means all the shuttles need to be back on campus by early evening. We use the same vans and service as the late night shuttles (we get a better deal this way).

Most people leave Chicago throughout the day on Friday or Saturday morning. I would use the airport shuttle but my flight leaves 7:30pm on Friday.
