Chicago Pipe Show Transportation

[graydawn]

Would appreciate any suggestions for getting from Midway airport to the Pheasant Run Resort for the Chicago Pipe show on Thursday April 30. The resort tells me that public transportation is not very good. Can't believe that with this event there isn't something set up.

St. Charles is a good 45 minutes or so from O'hare airport.Taxi or rent a car for the weekend maybe? I know that one of the gents on the SF forum is looking for someone to share a cab to the show.

A-1 Limo Services is the only way to go ! Call ahead and book the reservation. Let them know you're willing to share the ride to the resort and it's pretty economical. Something like $30 or so. Just make sure you book with the right service, there's another company with a similar name but the trip is like $150.

Should be a link on the Pheasant Run Website but the number I have for A-1 is 800 354-5849

Thanks Lonestar. I called and booked a ride.

We'll be coming in on Thursday as well- got dinged for $140 last year....

A-1 is $66 each way plus gratuity. Enterprise about $140 plus taxes.

More expensive than I remember, but still the best deal going.

If anybody is landing on Thursday before 9am, drop me a PM.

Signed up for A-1. The woman said that "all of you pipe smokers sounds so nice".

Definitely get in touch with Peck, I know for a fact he rents a Rolls Royce to take his sorry ass back and forth from the airport. He would never be seen in anything less.
