Who this guide is for
This guide is for the person coming home: the adult child flying in, the college student landing after finals week starts, the grandparent arriving from Florida, the family driving up from Chicagoland by way of O’Hare. If you are leaving Milwaukee for the holiday instead, read our Thanksgiving week departure guide. This page covers the arrival side, from the moment you land to your family’s front door.
Your three ways to get home from the airport
| Option | Best for | Rides start at |
|---|---|---|
| Sedan | One or two travelers with normal luggage | $60 at MKE, $199 from O’Hare or Midway |
| Premium SUV (Cadillac Escalade or Chevy Suburban) | Up to 6 travelers, with extra room for holiday luggage and gifts | $99 at MKE, $234 from O’Hare or Midway |
| Sprinter van or Ford Transit van | Big families and several siblings landing together: Executive Sprinter up to 13, Transit up to 14, Mercedes-Benz Sprinter up to 15 | Call for a group price |
Your final price depends on your pickup airport, your drop-off address and the vehicle. It is confirmed before you ride, with fuel and tolls included and no surge pricing. See the full limo prices or look over the fleet.
Which airport are you landing at?
| Airport | Ride and timing | Where to read more |

| MKE (Milwaukee Mitchell) | Our office and fleet are 2 minutes away, so pickups are fast and last-minute bookings are possible. Sedan from $60, SUV from $99 | Milwaukee airport car service and the MKE terminal pickup guide |
| O’Hare (ORD) | About 75 to 90 minutes to Milwaukee in normal traffic, more on the busiest holiday evenings. Sedan from $199, SUV from $234 | O’Hare to Milwaukee limo and the O’Hare pickup guide |

Your arrival-day plan, step by step
| When | What happens |
|---|---|
| Before you fly | Book online or call. Give us your airline, flight number, the airport, your drop-off address and how many people and bags are coming |
| While you are in the air | We track your flight, so a delay moves your pickup time with no extra charge |
| Before you land | Your driver is already at the airport and you get a text with the driver’s name and contact number |
| After you land | Your driver meets you and loads the bags. Airport pickups include a free 60-minute wait, and an inside meet-and-greet is available on request |
| On the ride home | Clean vehicle, Wi-Fi, comfortable seats, and a driver who handles the I-94 holiday traffic so you do not have to |
| At the door | Door-to-door drop-off with your bags, so you walk in rested |
Siblings landing at different times, or at different airports
Holiday homecomings rarely arrive on one flight. Tell dispatch about every arrival and we plan the pickups around them. Three common setups:
| Your situation | What to book |
|---|---|
| Two or three siblings landing within an hour of each other at the same airport | One premium SUV (up to 6) or a Sprinter, so everyone rides home together |
| Family members landing hours apart | Separate pickups, each tracked to its own flight, with one dispatcher coordinating |
| A grandparent flying in alone | An inside meet-and-greet so your driver finds them at the terminal and carries the bags |
Parents often book for their kids too. If you are booking for someone else, send us their cell number and flight details and we will text them directly, so nobody is searching a crowded arrivals curb.
Delays, weather and the Wednesday crush
The days around Thanksgiving are among the busiest travel days of the year, and late November weather in Wisconsin can slow both the flight and the drive. Because we track your flight and every airport pickup includes a free 60-minute wait, a late landing does not cost you extra. If your flight is delayed far into the night or canceled, call dispatch at (414) 322-3751 and we will rework the pickup. For more, read our guides on getting home after a delayed or canceled O’Hare flight and winter weather airport rides.
Getting to your family’s door
We drive from the airport to homes across Milwaukee and the surrounding area, and to destinations throughout Wisconsin. If your family lives well outside Milwaukee, call dispatch with the address and we will confirm the price before you ride. For the trip back to the airport after the holiday, tell us where you are staying and we will tell you what works. Looking for a regular Milwaukee limo service all year?

Frequently asked questions
How early should I book a ride home for Thanksgiving?
As soon as you have your flight. The Tuesday and Wednesday before Thanksgiving, and the Sunday after, are the busiest days, so earlier is safer. We can sometimes arrange last-minute rides, but holiday days fill up.
What does a ride from MKE cost?
Rides start at $60 for a sedan and $99 for an SUV. The final price depends on your drop-off address and vehicle, and it is confirmed before you ride.
What does a ride from O’Hare or Midway to Milwaukee cost?
Rides start at $199 for a sedan and $234 for an SUV from O’Hare, and from $199 from Midway. Fuel, tolls and airport waiting time are included, with no surge pricing.
How long is the drive from O’Hare to Milwaukee at Thanksgiving?
Plan on about 75 to 90 minutes in normal traffic, and longer on the busiest holiday evenings or in bad weather. From Midway, plan on about 90 to 110 minutes.
What if my flight is delayed?
We track your flight and move your pickup. Delays never add a charge, and airport pickups include a free 60-minute wait after you land.
Can a parent book a ride for a college student?
Yes. Send us the student’s flight, drop-off address and cell number, and we will text them directly. They can also contact dispatch at (414) 322-3751.
Can you pick up several family members who land at different times?
Yes. Give us every flight and we plan the pickups. Travelers landing close together can share one SUV or Sprinter.
Which vehicle should we book for a big family?
A premium SUV seats up to 6 with extra luggage room. For larger families, book the Executive Sprinter (13), the Ford Transit van (14) or the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter (15).
Do you offer an inside meet-and-greet for grandparents?
Yes, an inside meet-and-greet is available on request, so your driver meets older or first-time travelers at the terminal and helps with bags.
Can you drive me to a town outside Milwaukee?
Yes. We drive from the airport to destinations across Wisconsin. Call (414) 322-3751 with the address and we confirm your price before you ride.
Are your chauffeurs background-checked and insured?
