DESTINATION:
Beginning this summer, United Airlines will add non-stop flights to Chicago
O’Hare airport (ORD) from Eugene Airport. This is great news for travelers in
the Willamette Valley, making it easier than ever to fly from Eugene Airport
to vacation destinations such as Florida, the Caribbean, Central and South
America and Europe.
Flights to Chicago—named the “Best Airport in North America” for 10
years—will be overnight, allowing for easy connections to almost anywhere
in the world, and flights from Chicago to Eugene will be in the evening.
Planning a trip
A visit to Chicago can be fun any time of
the year. Winter can be very cold with up to
37 inches of snow over the season. This
would be the time to bundle up and visit
the indoor museums, attend a show at one
of the Broadway-style theaters, and shop
and eat your way through the city. The mild
weather in spring and fall are great for
sightseeing. Summer has the added fun of
beach activities since there are miles and
miles of sandy beaches surrounding Lake
Michigan. Outdoor concerts and festivals
of all types abound from spring through
fall.
Millennium Park
is a must-see for
visitors in the heart of downtown. Chicago
is one of the top sports cities in the
country. It is always game time when
you’re home to six major championship
teams in basketball, hockey, football,
baseball and soccer.
