Departure: Chicago O'Hare (ORD)

Flights from Chicago to London leave from Chicago O'Hare (ORD), serving Chicago - chicago sits on Lake Michigan with the Loop's skyscrapers, the Magnificent Mile and the lakefront parks at its heart; O'Hare (ORD) is about 27 km north-west of the Loop and Midway (MDW) about 16 km south-west. Plan to be at the airport about two hours before an international departure and ninety minutes before a domestic one; earlier at peak times. Online check-in opens 24 to 48 hours before and we send the link with your ticket. Getting to the airport: The CTA Blue Line runs from O'Hare and the Orange Line from Midway to the Loop in 40-50 minutes, workable for one traveller; with luggage, a family or a suburban hotel a car door to door is the simpler choice.

• Let us know about the terminal and fast-track options at Chicago O'Hare
• Arrive about 2 hours before an international departure, 90 minutes before a domestic one
• Online check-in opens 24-48 hours before; we send the link and the booking reference

Arrival: London Heathrow, Gatwick or Stansted (LHR / LGW / STN) and getting into London

You arrive at London Heathrow, Gatwick or Stansted (LHR / LGW / STN). The Elizabeth line and Heathrow Express, the Gatwick Express, the Stansted Express and the Luton train are all fast to a central station; from there the Tube with suitcases means stairs, gaps and crowds, and Wembley, Windsor or an Oxford Street hotel each add a change, which is why families and groups book a car from the terminal door. If you would rather not think about it, we book a private transfer from the airport to your hotel in London, with the driver tracking the flight in case it is late.

Onward flights or trains from London the same day can be added to the booking; tell us and we choose a Chicago to London departure that leaves a safe connection.

Baggage, seats and classes on the Chicago to London flight

On board, the Chicago to London flight is about 8 hours: economy is perfectly comfortable, and business class adds a bigger seat, a meal and lounge access for those who want it. Baggage rules differ by airline and fare; children and infants have their own allowances. Let us know who is flying and what you are carrying and we choose accordingly.

• Infants under two travel on a lap at a reduced fare; children have their own seat and fare
• Meals included on full-service airlines; special meals ordered in advance on request
• Business class: bigger seat, meal, lounge, priority boarding - we send the cost beside economy
• Cabin bag on every fare; checked bag included on full-service fares, optional on low-cost ones

Flying with children, families and groups from Chicago to London

Travelling with children? Put the ages on the form: infants and children have different fares and different baggage allowances, and we apply both. Groups - a company, a school, a wedding party - are booked together so everyone sits in the same section and one confirmation covers the whole party. Haqqi Tours also provides the minivans and Sprinters that carry a group between the airport and the hotel at both ends.

Things to do in London when you land

London is served by more airports than any city in the world: Heathrow (LHR) about 25 km west of the centre, Gatwick (LGW) about 45 km south, Stansted (STN) about 60 km north-east, Luton (LTN) about 55 km north and London City close to Canary Wharf; the West End, the City, Westminster and Kensington form the centre, with Windsor, Oxford and Cambridge within reach by road. Start with Hyde Park and Harrods, the West End theatres and Windsor Castle, then Oxford Street and Regent Street and Buckingham Palace and the Changing of the Guard. A tip from our desk: Tell us which airport and terminal - Heathrow alone has four in use - and the hotel's full postcode; London hotel names repeat across the city and the postcode sends the driver straight to the right street.

If you want the days in London organised - a driver, a guide, timed entry tickets - we do that too. Mention it by WhatsApp.

Best time to fly from Chicago to London

London is busy all year, with summer, the Christmas lights and the January sales at the peak; the M4 from Heathrow, the M23 from Gatwick and the M1 from Luton are slowest at weekday rush hours, and a Sunday evening back into town. On the flight from Chicago to London, seasons show in fares more than in schedules: holiday departures fill first, so we recommend booking early for summer, Christmas, New Year, Eid and Easter journeys.

Return flight from London to Chicago

Coming back? Say so on the form. A return flight ticket from London to Chicago booked with the outbound is often cheaper than two separate bookings, and it keeps the trip on one WhatsApp thread with one point of contact.

How much is a flight from Chicago to London?

Flight prices from Chicago to London follow demand: book early on a quiet day and you pay a fraction of a last-minute fare in high season. The carrier you choose, whether the fare includes baggage, the seat class and the time of the flight all change the total. Rather than quote a number that will be wrong tomorrow, Haqqi Tours checks the fare for the day you want to fly and sends it to you through WhatsApp before you decide.

Just ask for two or three options and we send the cost of each - for example the cheapest fare with hand luggage only, the same flight with a checked bag, and the best-timed departure of the day - so the comparison is in front of you before you book.
