Mumbai Chhatrapati Shivaji (BOM) is one of the busiest airports in India so expect to see some traffic getting there. While a taxi can make the trek, consider the option of the Mumbai Suburban Railway as well as the BEST buses. Flight duration is about 16 1/2 hours to Chicago Ohare International (ORD) Airport. While there is a hotel attached to the airport, if you are headed into the city, including The Loop, consider using the CTA or the Metra Rail.

Attractions

The Windy City offers lots to see and do for visitors of all ages. Millennium Park is located in The Loop and displays all types of unique gardens, architecture and art. It is also the home to multiple festivals and concerts throughout the year. While you are nearby, Grant Park provides a different look for Chicago, with a large green space that is filled with several different attractions. Plan to check out the Shedd Aquarium and the Field Museum.

Hints and tips

Spring and fall tend to be the best times to plan a visit. Temperatures during the day are consistently warm, and this is a popular place for all sorts of events to take place. Summertime tends to be the busiest season. In winter, temperatures drop and it isn't unusual to experience snow along with a real chill in the air.
