Wow, when did this happen? I'll be moving to Wicker Park (Damen stop on the blue line) and will be working in downtown. Does this mean I can't take the El to work??!

Oh, and you better have an awesome time in our city. If you don't, we'll suspect you're not right in the head.

Now that I found out that Southwest involves a stop in STL, I might have to try this ATA Airlines that goes from DFW->Midway for $80 each way. Either way, it looks like Midway is the obvious choice.

Not if you work on weekends I suppose. Theoretically the repair work should be done in September at which point weekend service to downtown will be restored.

I think the restriction is only in the weekends
