Frequently asked questions

Is it cheaper to buy a plane ticket from Chicago Airport to The Ohio State University Airport last minute?
Booking your journey from Midway Intl. Airport (MDW) to The Ohio State University Airport at the last minute could save you a nice sum if you're lucky to find a good deal. However, tickets don't typically get cheaper as the date of departure nears. If you hold out, flights could also be sold out or the best seats long gone. If you don't want to hedge your bets, book well in advance of when you want to leave. Don't forget that some of the biggest bargains can be found up to 12 months in advance. If your preferred airline hasn't released its fares yet, check back regularly as deals are constantly updated on Expedia.

Ohio State University Airport (OSU), John Glenn Columbus Intl. Airport (CMH) and Rickenbacker Intl. Airport (LCK) are your options when connecting from Chicago to Columbus. About 14 kilometers northwest of the heart of Columbus, Ohio State University Airport (OSU) is the city's major hub. Take into account factors such as flight departure and arrival times and the distance to your hotel before choosing an airport. Ohio State University and COSI are a couple of terrific attractions to put on your must-see list when you arrive.
Can I change the date of my flight from Chicago Airport to The Ohio State University Airport?
Easily make changes to your MDW to The Ohio State University Airport flight by logging in to the Expedia Trips portal.
