Compare the official economy options
| Lot | Official rate | Best for | Terminal connection |
|---|---|---|---|
| F | $30 for 4–24 hours | Covered parking at the Multi-Modal Facility | Walk to the ATS station |
| G | $16 for 1–24 hours | Lowest-priced official option | Lot shuttle, then ATS |
| H | $16 for 1–24 hours | Low-cost official surface parking | Lot shuttle, then ATS |
Lots G and H are along Bessie Coleman Drive. Their shuttle buses take passengers to the Multi-Modal Facility (MMF), where the free ATS continues to all four passenger terminals. Lot F is inside the MMF on floors 4 and 5, so it is the simplest economy option for travelers who prefer covered parking and direct ATS access.
Plan the transfer, not just the drive
- Check the airport's current lot status and choose F, G, or H.
- For G or H, allow time for the shuttle to the MMF.
- At the MMF, follow signs for the ATS and select your terminal.
- Keep your parking location and payment method handy for your return.
Useful distinction: Terminal 5
Terminal 5 is separate from the domestic terminal core. The ATS is the dependable landside connection from economy parking to Terminal 5. If you are making an airside connection, check your airline and O'Hare's transfer guidance before relying on a terminal transfer bus.
