Southwest® flights from Cincinnati to Chicago-Midway from $103

Whether your first order of business when you deplane at Chicago Midway International Airport is to belly up to a bar for a Chicago Handshake, to order up a tavern style pizza, or to hit the streets for a walking tour, the City of the Big Shoulders is ready to say hello! Grab a rental car, call a rideshare, or hop on the Orange Line of the ‘L’ and start your Windy City adventure.

Chicago is a city of neighborhoods, boasting 77 officially designated neighborhood areas. You likely won’t have time to hit each and every one of them in one visit, but you can pass through many of them aboard the ‘L’; consider buying a CTA pass and going on an uncharted expedition. Some of the best eats in the city can be found miles away from Restaurant Row, so pick up that Michelin Guide and venture to Logan Square, Avondale, Pilsen, or Bronzeville.
