TRAVEL RECOMMENDATIONS

To ensure a smooth travel experience, Lafayette Limo recommends arriving at O’Hare International Airport at least 2 hours before domestic flight departures and at least 3 hours before international flight departures. 

During peak travel periods—including holidays and Purdue University breaks—we recommend allowing additional time for travel due to the high volume of passengers and the time it takes to check everyone in & load luggage.

The roads around Chicago are also notorious for construction projects throughout the year. This may contribute to our shuttle experiencing occasional delays. We strongly suggest you take this possibility into consideration when selecting your shuttle time, especially during periods of increased roadwork.

Please note: Lafayette Limo is not responsible for delays that result in missed or rescheduled flights. These recommendations are subject to change based on airport conditions and airline guidelines.

PARKING INFORMATION

We have free customer parking at our office. Please contact our office for more information about leaving a car with us while you are traveling. Due to limited availability, parking restrictions, and time limits at our other pick up locations, we ask that you contact those businesses directly for current parking details and policies.
