(16,394 posts)Flew out of Chicago early in the morning, flew back the same day. I guess a lot of women were doing the same thing, because the clinic I used actually ran a free airport shuttle bus to pick up patients at the airport and take us back afterwards.
The only snag I hit was that I got back to Chicago later than I planned and missed the limo that would have taken me back to the college town where I was living and going to school at the time. Took CTA bus to downtown Chicago, spent the night in the Greyhound bus station, and caught the first bus home in the morning.
If I'd had the $, I'd have stayed in a hotel in New York and flown back the next day, but the cost of just getting there and back stretched my financial resources to the max. I have no regrets except for not planning things out a little better.
