Their unaccompanied minors service is mandatory for kids between ages 5 and 11 and comes with a lot of benefits.

Depending on your budget, you can either take a taxi or use the train to get to Downtown Chicago. The train is a budget-friendly option, as you pay only a fraction of the taxi prices, but it is not the most convenient.
