How Your Midway Pickup Works

- 2
Flight Tracking Begins

- 4
Meet Inside at Baggage Claim
Your driver holds a sign with your name near the carousels on the lower arrivals level — not outside at the curb. 30 minutes of free wait time is included from landing.

Bags Loaded, You Depart
Your chauffeur loads luggage and pulls to your destination. Flat fare paid — no meter running, no end-of-trip surprises.
Flying Southwest? Here's What to Expect at MDW
Southwest Airlines operates roughly 90% of Midway's flights. Unlike most carriers, Southwest uses open boarding — seats are assigned by check-in position, not a pre-assigned number. That means passengers typically move through security and board faster, but arrival waves at baggage claim come in distinct surges as full 737s land back-to-back.
Royal Carriage builds a 30-minute free wait into every MDW pickup specifically because Southwest's carousel staging can run 15–20 minutes after a busy turn. Your driver is not on a meter — they wait at baggage claim until you have your bags, at no extra charge within that window.
Southwest's Rapid Rewards members frequently need same-day rebooking on delays. If your flight is disrupted and you need to reschedule your pickup, call (224) 801-3090 and we adjust the dispatch at no penalty — provided the change is before your original scheduled arrival.
For Southwest travelers heading to a south Loop hotel, south-suburban home, or Hyde Park destination, Royal Carriage covers the 11-mile run from the MDW curb to your door in under 30 minutes off-peak. Midway's single-terminal layout means no ATS people-mover, no terminal-hopping, and a 3–5 minute walk from gate to baggage claim. Your car is staged and ready when you exit. Compare all our options on our Chicago limo service overview.

Midway Limo FAQ
Where does my driver meet me at Midway Airport?
Your driver meets you inside at baggage claim — not outside at the curb. They hold a sign with your name near the carousels. You will receive a text with their name and cell number before your plane lands.
How does your Midway flight tracking work?
We use real-time flight tracking tied to your flight number. Your driver is dispatched based on actual landing time, not scheduled arrival. If your Southwest flight lands 20 minutes early, your driver is already there. If it lands late, they wait without charging you.
Is parking included in the Midway pickup price?
Yes. All driver fees, parking, tolls, and gratuity are included in your flat rate. There are no add-ons at the end of the trip.
Can I book a round trip — from home to Midway and back?
Absolutely. Round-trip bookings are common. Book both legs online, or call (224) 801-3090 and we handle it in one call. Both runs are flat-fare, confirmed upfront.
How does Midway compare to O'Hare for limo service?
Midway is closer to downtown (11 miles vs 18), so transfers are faster and start at $130 (the same flat fare as O'Hare). MDW serves Southwest Airlines and some American Airlines routes. ORD handles more international flights and United. We service both airports at all hours.
Do you offer car seats or booster seats for Midway rides?
Yes, at no extra charge. Tell us the type and number of seats at booking, or call (224) 801-3090, and your chauffeur installs and secures them before pickup. Family runs to and from Midway are a regular booking for us.
What is your cancellation policy for Midway transfers?
Sedan and SUV trips cancel free 48+ hours before pickup; a 50% charge applies 24-48 hours before pickup, and under 24 hours or a no-show is the full charge. Because every arrival is flight-tracked, there is no change fee for adjusting your pickup time when a flight is early or delayed. Multi-vehicle and event bookings carry their own deposit terms confirmed at booking.
Can I book a last-minute or late-night ride to Midway?
Yes. We run 24/7 with the same flat fare at 4 AM as at 4 PM, and we can often accommodate same-day Midway pickups with two to three hours of notice. For an early Southwest departure or a late arrival, call (224) 801-3090 directly and we will arrange it.

What Our Customers Say
“Booked a Sprinter for our team's 4 AM O'Hare run before a conference — 12 people, 12 carry-ons, plus pop-up banners. Driver knew exactly which terminal door to drop us at for each airline. Saved us 25 minutes vs the conference shuttle.”
— Priya R. · O'Hare group run
“Caught the last Southwest out of MDW with three minutes to spare because the driver knew the dispatch trick — drop at Concourse A north entrance, not the main island. Beat the security line by going up the elevator instead of escalator. That's a pro.”
— Mike D. · Midway last-flight save
