Frequently asked questions

Is it cheaper to buy a plane ticket from IOW to Chicago Airport last minute?
Booking your journey from IOW to Midway Intl. Airport (MDW) at the last minute could save you cash if you're lucky enough to find an amazing deal. However, tickets usually don't drop in price as the date of departure nears. If you wait around, flights could also be booked out or the best seats taken (we hope you like the middle seat!). If you don't want to hedge your bets, book well ahead of the date you want to leave. Note that some of the biggest deals can be found up to a year in advance. If your preferred carrier hasn't released its airfares yet, check back regularly as offers are constantly updated on Expedia.
What airports do you fly into for Chicago from Iowa City?
With Midway Intl. Airport (MDW), O'Hare Intl. Airport (ORD) and Lewis University Airport (LOT) to choose from, traveling from Iowa City to Chicago is a cinch. The city's main terminal, Midway Intl. Airport (MDW), is roughly 14 kilometers southwest of the center. Besides ticket prices, consider factors like transportation options from the airport and the distance to your hotel when choosing where to fly into. Get your Chicago vacation off to an exciting start by discovering Wrigley Field and Millennium Park.
Can I change the date of my flight from IOW to Chicago Airport?
You can quickly make changes to your IOW to MDW ticket through the Expedia Trips portal. But before you make any amendments, read over the rules and restrictions in your itinerary to learn what the airline will let you do and what fees apply for changes.
