Potentially between Great Lakes cities (Milwaukee-Chicago-Detroit, though probably not Detroit as its a long detour through the Straight of Mackinac) or as fast riverboats.
- uxp100 4y agoYeah, that dumb Milwaukee to Chicago flight. The Hiawatha doesn’t go to Ohare (an existing right of way, would add time a little bit of time to the main downtown to downtown trip, but it’s so dumb it doesn’t have at least a glenview to ohare connection), just the Milwaukee airport, and anyway I suppose airlines would rather you be in their system as soon as possible. But such a dumb flight. Take off, then land, hope you don’t spend more time taxiing than in the air.
- ElevenLathe 4y agoI've needed to go to Kalamazoo several times, connecting through O'hare. On the return trip, because of the timezone change and the extremely short flight (~15m IIRC), the arrival time printed on your ticket is earlier than your departure time.
