I was just wondering what people are thinking on the Chicago Airport issue... seems nothing is going to be done about Chicago's airports. MDW and ORD are congested to hell... and no expansion is being done at ORD to help this. MDW is getting a new terminal, but not many new gates. The real thing im asking is 1.) Build the four extra terminals on the other side of ORD that were proposed a while back or 2.) Bulid an extra airport.

Please tell me why. I live north of ORD and my parents are sayign they would drive to GYY (Gary) or MKE (Milwaukee) to avoid our airports, although they have not done so yet.

I used to live in Chicago and travel there several times a year, dividing my flights between ORD and MDW(love em both).
Don't have an answer to your question but I notice your point also. Mayor Daley doesn't seem to be doing much about it, look what he wants to do to Meigs! Another park, that really solves the problem, so much for looking towards the city gov for an answer!

I just read an article from Airwise about some plans to expand ORD. It sounds like they are close to deciding if they will actually go through with it.

Heres the article: http://news.airwise.com/cgi-bin/story?name=2000/09/969701790.html
