Frequently asked questions

Is it cheaper to buy a plane ticket from O'Hare Intl. Airport (ORD) to Cavern City Air Terminal last minute?
Being a spontaneous soul is a terrific way to travel the world, but it's not necessarily the best way to get your hands on a cheap airfare. Think about booking your ORD to Cavern City Air Terminal trip well ahead of time instead of waiting until the last minute. Based on flight pricing and demand studies in 2022, we have found that the best time to book domestic flights is between 28 – 35 days ahead of the departure date, and international flights three to four months in advance. We recommend saving that spontaneity for when you reach your destination!
