Jessica 0 #1 February 12, 2003 So if there were this girl flying into Chicago next Friday afternoon, and she really didn't want to have to rent a car, but needed to get to Skydive Chicago, what should she do? Are there any shuttles/buses/etc.? I CAN rent a car, I just don't wanna. I would have this planned out better, but making the trip was a last-minute decision.Skydiving is for cool people only Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You might want to try posting at SDC's bulletin board as well - http://www.skydivechicago.com/forum/index.php Make sure to specify ORD or MDW for your airport as well. Sorry I can't help - wedding preparations are preventing jumping trips. (There is a reason the wedding was scheduled in March!) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wildblue 4 #8 February 12, 2003 whore your skanky-ass out for rides - that should at least get you out of the parking lot of the airport. After that, you may have to walk.it's like incest - you're substituting convenience for quality Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JJohnson 0 #9 February 12, 2003 From the airport to SDC I don't think there are shuttles and no public transportation to take you that far. If you run out of option PM me your flight info. I can get you from the airport, I work nearby. I live out in the direction of SDC and can get you there that evening.JJ "Call me Darth Balls" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vallerina 2 #10 February 12, 2003 If nothing else, Jess...I work till 3:30 and can pick you up then, most likely. I'm not sure what time your classes and such start, however.There's a thin line between Saturday night and Sunday morning Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sunshine 2 #11 February 12, 2003 You never said if you're flying into O'hare or Midway. Keep in mind that the Dunkin Donuts in O'hare does NOT have cherry cake donuts.

Jessica 0 #15 February 13, 2003 I've had a few very sweet offers to pick me up and drive me to SDC, but it looks like it's far enough that I should just rent a car. Thanks to everyone who offered though!Skydiving is for cool people only Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
