Flights To Chicago
All roads lead to Chicago. The Windy City was the birthplace of the skyscraper and today it’s full of historical sites of Industrial America, rich foods and an artsy, bluesy culture. All of that is wrapped in a working-class mentality, like a Chicago dog is wrapped in in a bun. Pack your guitar (and your antacids) and get ready for Chicago!
Getting Around Chicago
Chicago’s O’Hare International Airport (ORD) is one of the largest in the world. You can catch the Blue Line train into “The Loop”, or the main part of the city. There are also buses and taxis that will pick you up at the airport. Downtown is very walkable, and there is even an underground system of tunnels that helps you get around no matter what the weather is outside. Want to feel the wind in your hair? Check out Wotif’s car hire options and put the pedal to the metal.
When You Land…
Are you on one of the flights to Chicago that arrives in the morning? Sweet! There are plenty of museums for you to explore all day long in the Museum Campus. Check out the Field Museum of Natural History, the Museum of Science and Industry, and the Art Institute of Chicago.
If afternoon Chicago flights leave you with a grumbling tummy, find the nearest hot dog cart and order yourself a Chicago dog. But for the love of all that’s Chicagoan, don’t you dare apply any ketchup!
If you land after dark, head downtown and check out all the brightly-lit skyscrapers before checking into Chicago hotels.
Live Like a Local
You’ll find tons to do after you book one of Wotif’s Chicago holiday packages. Dip your toes in the water of Lake Michigan or just stroll along the famous waterfront. You won’t regret it! But if you really want to live like a Chicagoan, head to Soldier Field, grab a beer and tell the stadium how you really feel about that ref’s last call against Da’ Bears. You’ll fit right in.

Here’s an insider tip: Sunday is typically the cheapest day to fly! Looking at flight demand on Wotif in 2019, we found that flights departing on a Sunday generally had the lowest average price, closely followed by flights on a Monday.

What is the best day to buy a plane ticket?
Guess what? Boring old Wednesday really is the best day to score the cheapest plane tickets. Looking at flight demand on Wotif in 2019, we found that flights purchased on a Wednesday had the lowest airfares on average. Booking your plane ticket on a Sunday also seems to score pretty good deals. However, airfares purchased on a Saturday generally have a higher than average ticket value, so you might want to prepare your budget if you’re booking on a weekend.
What is the cheapest month to fly?
When comparing airfares booked through Wotif in 2019, our data shows October is one of the cheapest months to fly. On the other hand, the December holiday period can be one of the most expensive times to travel, with the highest average ticket price, so it’s best to get in early during peak periods.
How far in advance can you book a flight?
Trying to figure out how early you should book your flight? It’s possible to start comparing international airfares on Wotif up to 12 months in advance. However, it does depend on the carrier as not all airlines release their prices that far out. According to Wotif’s 2019 flight demand trends, last minute planners can still bag a bargain with some of the cheapest airfares appearing 1-3 weeks prior to travel.
