From the Driver's Seat
Chauffeur notes — Michael, 8 years with Royal Carriage
For Midway pickups I watch the Southwest B concourse baggage belt on the FlightAware app — belt 4 hits about 12 minutes post-landing, belt 6 closer to 18. I pull to Door 3 on the lower level instead of the standard Door 4 because the curb cops there are more relaxed about a 90-second wait with hazards on.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you track my flight?
Yes, every airport reservation is tied to your flight number. If your flight is early, delayed, or diverted, our dispatch adjusts the pickup automatically — no call needed.
What's included in your airport rate?
Meet-and-greet with a name placard at baggage claim, 60 minutes of free wait on domestic arrivals (90 on international), help with luggage, bottled water, and tolls. No hidden fees.
Where does the chauffeur meet me at O'Hare and Midway?
At O'Hare, we meet at baggage claim for your specific airline. At Midway, we meet at the exit doors near baggage claim 1. Your chauffeur will text you their location before you land.
What if my flight is delayed overnight?
We hold your reservation at no additional charge until you land. If you're rebooked on a different flight, just reply to the confirmation text and dispatch handles the rest.
Can you do multiple stops en route?
Yes — drop luggage at a hotel, stop for a meal, or grab a colleague on the way. Multi-stops are billed hourly if the total time exceeds the point-to-point rate.
Do you service private jet FBOs at ORD, MDW, and PWK?
Yes. We regularly serve Signature, Atlantic, and Signature PWK. Our chauffeurs know which gates to use and can coordinate with your flight crew for ramp-side pickup when authorized.
Why Chicago Riders Choose Royal Carriage
We've been moving Chicagoans since 2009. Unlike rideshare, every Royal Carriage chauffeur is a W-2 employee, not a gig contractor — meaning consistent training, background-checked drivers, and accountability on every ride. Our dispatch runs 24/7 out of a staffed Chicago office (not an overseas call center), and the person who books your ride is the same person who'll answer if your flight gets rerouted to Milwaukee at 2 a.m.
We serve the entire Chicagoland area: downtown Loop, River North, West Loop, Gold Coast, Lincoln Park, Wicker Park, and every North Shore and West Suburban community, plus O'Hare (ORD) and Midway (MDW) with full flight tracking.
