Post Downers Grove to O'Hare travel time?
Greetings, can any locals give me a realistic travel time to O'Hare from Downers Grove? Mapquest says 30 minutes, but I'm sure that can vary depending on the time of day. Also, would it be cheaper to cab it or park at the airport? 21 miles by Mapquest including toll roads. Any and all comments are appreciated!

30 min is probably do-able in easy traffic. I'd leave 45 min - 1hr during heavier times. 294 North can get jammed up during the morning rush, and the short stretch of highway leading into the airport and terminals can get congested. Part of it depends on where you're coming from in Downers Grove. A few bad intersections on the way to highway can pad your travel times to and from almost anywhere.
