Ground Transportation

Q Center is served by O’Hare International and Midway Airports. O’Hare is approximately 35 miles east and Midway 45 miles southeast of Saint Charles (Saint Charles is 45 miles west of downtown Chicago).

To save on transportation costs, Q Center has partnered with A1 Limousine Service. Ground transportation can be arranged when reserving a sleeping room at Q Center. Q Center captures all the incoming schedules to the Center and assigns attendees to a car with other Q Center bound travelers. Rates can vary depending on the number of people sharing a ride when with a group. The Commission recommends coordinating arrival times so the group can board one car to the Center. In the event an attendee must travel alone, the cost to the Q Center from O’Hare Airport is $59.00 plus gratuity and from Midway Airport is $73.00 plus gratuity. Rates are subject to change.
