Frequently asked questions

Is it cheaper to buy a plane ticket from SCH to O'Hare Intl. Airport (ORD) last minute?
Being a spontaneous soul is a wonderful way to travel around, but it isn't always the ideal way to nab a cheap flight.

Based on flight pricing and demand studies in 2022, we have found that the best time to book domestic flights is between 28 – 35 days ahead of the departure date, and international flights three to four months in advance. Leave all that spontaneity for when you arrive in ORD!
