  • Make sure you know the location of your travel ID and boarding pass. You don’t want to hold up the line when you’re asked to present them.
  • It’s helpful to know that belts with metal buckles can set off the body scanner’s alarms. If you have one on, you may be told to remove it before moving on.
  • Digital cameras, laptops and other electronic devices must be placed in separate tubs to be X-rayed.
  • When it comes to flying with liquids or gels, every passenger is allowed a quart-sized clear resealable bag to transport containers no bigger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).
  • Undo your shoelaces as you approach the body scanner. Depending on the style of shoes you’ve got on, security may tell you to remove them.
  • Pack any multi-tools or other pointy metal items inside your checked luggage. Security personnel don’t permit these on the plane.

How to find cheap flights

What is the best day to buy a plane ticket?

Airfares offered on Friday tend to be the cheapest, according to flight demand on Travelocity.ca in 2021. Purchasing your airfares on a Thursday or Saturday can also provide better value, however our advice if you’re looking to save money is to avoid booking on a Wednesday or Sunday. Our data shows that those two days have the highest ticket values on average, so keep this in mind if you’re browsing flight deals.

 

What are the cheapest days to fly?

Frequent travellers may already know this, earlier in the week is often the cheapest time to fly. Flights departing on a Monday are the cheapest of the week. Since flights towards the middle of the week tend to be more popular, this causes the prices to rise. This is why, on average, airfares booked on Travelocity.ca in 2021 were most expensive for Wednesday departures.

 

How far in advance can you book a flight?

Here’s the deal: It is typically possible to start comparing international airfares on Travelocity.ca 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 our 2021 flight demand trends, last minute planners can still bag a bargain with some of the cheapest fares appearing 2-4 weeks prior to their travel dates.

*According to flight demand on Travelocity.ca from January to December 2021. Savings are subject to change and may vary depending on selections made.

Flights To Chicago

Each time you visit Chi-Town, you’ll fall in love anew. Even if you’ve stood in front of the famous metallic bean and stood along the Navy Pier, you won’t be left wanting for original ways to spend your time. As Mark Twain posited, “She is novelty, for she is never the same Chicago you saw when you passed through the last time.” The modern city on the shores of Lake Michigan is always evolving and will never fail to enchant you. Between the exciting sports culture and buildings that hearken back to a time when Frank Sinatra and Al Capone ran the scene, Chicago always impresses.

Flights to Chicago depart from tons of destinations; just sit back, start dreaming of deep-dish pizza, and before you know it you’ll be touching down in the Windy City. Book your airfare on Travelocity today, and you’ll save enough cash to afford all the famous frankfurters you want.

Transportation from Chicago Airports

Chicago flights land at one of the two major airports: O’Hare International Airport (ORD) and Midway International Airport (MDW). Getting to downtown Chicago from ORD is a breeze when you take the Blue line train, which is part of the Chicago Transit Authority train system. From MDW, jump on the Orange line train.

If you’re not staying downtown, buses are available to most parts of the city from both airports. When a private ride is more your style, hail a taxi outside the baggage claim area. Many hotels also have shuttle buses that will take you to and from the airport. But if independence is more your style, there are many rental car companies located within the airport if you need your own wheels; book your ride when you purchase your airfare to Chicago and your vacation is set.
