Frequently asked questions

How long does it take to fly from TYS to O'Hare Airport?
United Airlines operates a direct flight setting off from TYS at 5:33PM and touching down at ORD at 6:27PM — a total flight duration of 1 hour and 54 minutes. Book your perfect seat, pack a few things to keep you occupied and the time will speed by.
Is it cheaper to buy a plane ticket from Knoxville Airport to ORD last minute?
Booking your flight from TYS to ORD at the last minute could help you save if you hit the jackpot and find a real bargain. However, fares don't usually get cheaper as the departure date nears. If you hold off, flights could also be sold out or the best seats gone (because no one wants the middle seat). If you'd rather err on the side of caution, book well ahead of the date you want to leave. Don't forget that some of the biggest bargains can be found up to a year in advance. If your preferred carrier hasn't released its airfares yet, check back regularly as offers are constantly updated on Expedia.
What airline has the least delays from TYS to ORD?
Book a seat with United Airlines from McGhee Tyson Airport (TYS) to O'Hare Airport and you're more likely to touch down at the time printed on your boarding card. This airline tops the list on this route, with an on-time arrival score of 76%. If your flight is delayed for some reason, the Expedia App is an easy way to stay up to date. Download it onto your device and get real-time trip notifications, from flight delays to gate changes and the carousel number to collect your luggage.
What airports do you fly into for Chicago from Knoxville?
O'Hare Intl. Airport (ORD), Midway Intl. Airport (MDW) and Lewis University Airport (LOT) are your choices when jetting off from Knoxville to Chicago. Roughly 26 kilometers northwest of downtown Chicago, O'Hare Intl. Airport (ORD) is the city's main hub. Think about factors like flight arrival and departure times and the distance to your hotel before settling on an airport. Wrigley Field and Millennium Park are two excellent attractions to put on your must-see list when you arrive at your destination.
What are the most popular departure times for flights from Knoxville Airport to O'Hare Intl. Airport (ORD)?
The most popular departure times for flights from TYS to ORD fall between 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM on United Airlines. One handy tip is to take off in the morning. The earlier you set off, the better your odds of a delay-free flight as air traffic hasn't yet built up around airports.
Can I change the date of my flight from TYS to ORD?
Sometimes life gets in the way of plans, so Expedia is here to help make amending your trip as easy as possible. First, access your Knoxville Airport to O'Hare Airport itinerary through the Expedia Trips portal and browse the ticket conditions and rules to see if change fees apply.
