Best place to park near O'hare airport?

[smug]

I am going on vacation in about two weeks and will be gone for just under a week. I need a place to park my car for that time and I am not sure where the best place to park the car would be. There are several hotels with parking garages with in miles of the airport that offer daily rates of under $10 a day, with shuttle service to O'hare. I would like to leave my car in a garage with security camera incase anything happens. This seems like the best option so far.

Limo or cab is very expensive because I live well over an hour away from the O'hare. I have never looked into this because some one can usually give me a ride to and from the airport.

And go!

If you get off the expressway at Harlem Ave there's a neighborhood to park in. Some may be permit parking but I've Parker around there to take the train and the blue line goes intHare

I'm not doing indoor parking but is a secure lot off of Mannheim rd. I can find the name if you want. I had the travel agent book it with my flight

If you can afford to go on vacation you can afford a driver to pick you up. I paid 200 round trip from N/W Indiana to Midway airport not including tip. The driver drove a Cadillac not a Limo.

Avistar.

We have been using them for the better part of the last fifteen years.. Cheap parking, and the indoor parking is good for peace of mind and a little bit more than the base, but they're good people. Have a shuttle to and from the airport too. The garage is CLEAN as well. It's a giant indoor warehouse.

Chicago O'Hare Airport (ORD) Parking - Avistar ORD

Avistar looks nice, I was also looking at the InterContinental Hotel parking, O'hare Blue Sky Parking, and the Marriott. They all seem to have good parking with free shuttle service.

yes it is Avistar in franklin park . I am paying 57 bucks for 6 days parking outside.

American Taxi has set prices for rides to and from the airport.

I think we paid about $60 each way from North Aurora to Ohare.

That's who we use.

Screw leaving my car somewhere other than home.

And a piece of mind that my car is at home in the garage for no one to even breathe on it.

I personally would take a livery car. Why deal with having to drive home and making sure your car isnt dented dinged etc. Even @100.00 each way its well worth it to me to sit back and let someone else drive me home.

gonna sound kinda shitty but it's a marauder, not a ferrari. it'd be fine, considering there are $150K mercedes and lambos in that garage.

they drive it 50 feet and park it. nobody else is allowed to walk near the car except employees

Driving the 09 Fusion that was almost totaled out, has 100,000 miles, and it already has some dings and what not, it is a daily driver express way car. If someone wants to steal the car then they can have it because that's what insurance is for. To book a limo, cab, car, or what ever from the Kankakee County area to Ohare and back is not cheap at all.

just use Avistar,Ive used them also...everything will be fine.Its a vacation man!just fkn enjoy it
where you going?

So you dont think a Ferrari has ever been messed with or broken into in a secured area. You dont make a valid point.

I dont care if I am parking a wheel barrow. I dont trust ANYBODY near anything I own. Especilly an employee who just might of had a bad night before work.

Last I checked, not all employees are model employees..

Plus why not relax to and from the airport. Your on Vacation. Let the driver fight traffic.

 

[blck10th]

i knew these 2 were gonna get into it.
the guy is asking about places he can park so he is obviously not worried about any damage as the owner stated.

hate to say it but my cobra has had more damage sitting in the garage than anywhere else

the parking garage at my work right off Mannheim and 72 at the Ohare Metra station does a park and fly thing through the hotels that share it. I park there every day. Safety isn't a problem there in the 5 years I've been there was only one rash of breakins of cars and the police ended up catching the guy. The Rosemont police cruise through the garage as well as the building security. The only concern is The spots are tight so if you don't want any door dings park up on the higher floors away from anyone else.

There is also the remote airport parking lot on manheim right next to the parking garage as well with buses that pickup and drop off constantly. Its monitored by security 24 hours as well but its all outdoors.

Or, you can pay me, park you car in my garage, and I'll sit outside 24/7 with a shotgun. I'm about 7 miles from the airport.

Try the rental car companys. When we went to vegas last year we left ours at Budjet. But I think hertz and Avis rent spots to.

You’re an idiot. If you came home to a car with the window smashed in, you’d be on TCG posting some emo crap from the parking lot via tapatalk. It doesn’t matter if it’s a Bugatti or a POS, it’s the inconvenience and hassle that you don’t want to deal with after coming back from a trip.

To the OP, do you have family or friends that can drive you? That’s the best option. Other than that, I always take a cab or livery.

Actually, I would be on the phone with my insurance company and asking what my options were. It is a secure lot and warehouse and we have parked our cars there dozens of times without issue.

OP asked where we thought he should park his car. He has also said he does not wish to go about it any other way. Maybe you should read a little.
