How do I get from New York to Chicago?

Friday, January 30th, 2009

I’m going to be in New York early Saturday afternoon and I’m trying to get back to Chicago (where my car’s parked), without traveling all day. I can’t find ANY flights direct from NY MacArthur, JFK, or Newark to Chicago Midway.

Flying to O’Hare really isn’t an option unless there’s a particularly good way to get from the airport to Millenium Station (in Chicago).

Here’s what I’m shooting for….. looking to get to Chicago as quickly as possible, without scraping my @ss out of bed before noon on Saturday.

So far my best option is a bus from NY to Philadelphia, then a flight via Southwest to Chicago Midway. Anyone have any better ideas? Thanks.
I tried the Travelocity search, and no flights came up without requiring a connection somewhere, and they were all at least 6 hours or so, which is definitely longer than a bus to Philly.
FYI, my car’s at the 93rd (South Chicago) Metra Station.
