If you’re looking for towering skyscrapers, world class museums, and diehard sports fans who like their hot dogs just so, the Windy City is your destination. Because many of Chicago’s sites and scenes are spread out over the city and neighboring communities, getting a rental car is a great way to go. Whether you pick up your rental car at the airport or from one of the many car rental companies in town, you will find some useful information below to help you get the right rental car for the right price.

If you’re arriving in Chicago by plane, you may wish to pick up your rental car from one of the many car rental companies at the airports. Those flying into O’Hare International Airport (ORD) will find Alamo, Budget, Dollar, Enterprise, Hertz, National, and Thrifty a short shuttle ride away. Midway International travelers have the following car rental companies, all with cars in the terminal, to choose from: Budget, Dollar, Enterprise, Hertz, National, and Thrifty. We can also show you a map of the nearest car rental locations to your hotel and the rental cars they carry. (And keep in mind that off-airport car rentals are often cheaper than at the airport, even from the same car rental company.)
