Flying privately through Chicago Midway

Reviewed October 28, 2026

Private flights at Chicago Midway (MDW) use fixed-base operator (FBO) facilities with their own street addresses. The Chicago Department of Aviation lists Atlantic Aviation and Signature Aviation for private aircraft. Confirm which facility is handling your flight before arranging a pickup, drop-off or connection with an airline flight.

Use the private terminal on your itinerary

The Chicago Department of Aviation publishes two FBO locations. Your charter provider should identify the correct one and supply passenger instructions.

Midway FBO locations
FBOStreet addressTelephone
Atlantic Aviation6150 S. Laramie Avenue, Chicago, IL 60638773-582-5720
Signature Aviation5821 S. Central Avenue, Chicago, IL 60638773-767-4400

Atlantic and Signature both publish 24/7 service. That does not guarantee aircraft availability, parking or immediate customs clearance. Confirm arrangements for your specific flight.

Compare the entire city journey

Midway is worth comparing when your plans center on Chicago, but a downtown destination does not establish it as the fastest choice. Assess the drive from the assigned FBO to your actual destination at the planned hour.

Work backward from a meeting or event start time and include the transfer. If you are connecting with an airline flight, arrange the journey between the FBO and airline terminal. Sharing the MDW airport code does not mean sharing a check-in area or waiting room.

Request the services that matter to your group

Atlantic lists concierge assistance, rental vehicles, conference facilities and Wi-Fi. Signature describes a private terminal, hangar services and customs support. Confirm availability and charges with the provider or FBO; a published amenity is not automatically included in a charter price.

Discuss child seats, mobility needs and luggage before transport is booked. For a larger group, have one person circulate the final address and instructions so passengers do not split between the two facilities. An FBO listing here does not establish an AirChicago partnership.

Check constraints for your travel date

Airport works and busy events can affect ramp space and handling. Atlantic publishes current MDW advisories; ask the provider to verify parking and handling conditions for your dates. Crews remain responsible for operational planning and current notices.

If practical, compare MDW with Chicago Executive or DuPage. Review the offered aircraft, total price and ground transfer together. Explore our Chicago to Miami guide, charter cost guide and airport comparison.
