Flat-rate, flight-tracked car service between Lincoln Park and Chicago O'Hare — about sixteen miles up the Kennedy, with no meter and no surge. From a brownstone near the zoo to a DePaul dorm, an Armitage boutique, or a high-rise along the lakefront, a clean, current-year sedan or SUV is waiting, on time, at one clear flat fare.
Lincoln Park is one of Chicago's most beloved North Side neighborhoods — a leafy, affluent stretch between the river and the lake, named for the 1,200-acre park that runs along its lakefront. It's a neighborhood of tree-lined streets and graystone brownstones, of DePaul University and the free Lincoln Park Zoo, of the boutiques along Armitage and Halsted and the theaters on Lincoln Avenue, all just north of downtown and the Gold Coast.
O'Hare sits about sixteen miles to the northwest — typically a 25-to-45-minute run straight up the Kennedy Expressway (I-90/94), with no tollway and no surge. You book one flat fare, your flight is tracked, and a clean late-model sedan or SUV arrives at your door, whether that's a brownstone off Fullerton, a high-rise on the lakefront, or a building near the zoo.

From Lincoln Park the airport run is a clean shot up the Kennedy Expressway (I-90/94) to O'Hare — about sixteen miles, 25 to 45 minutes depending on the hour. No tollway, no parking, no luggage on the platform; just door-to-door from your block to the terminal.
Because your fare is flat, rush-hour traffic on the Kennedy never costs you extra — and we watch conditions and pick the best route, whether that's the expressway or the side streets, to get you there on time.
