flights to chicago

Hi all my father-in-law is going to see his son in america for 2 weeks in August taking 2 grandchildren 13 & 15 to help look after him. As he's going in prime time all the quotes for flights seem way too expensive. He can be flexible with the day time he leave and would prefer a northern airport. Over to you any ideas :think:
you go all your life thinking that money and comfort will bring you happiness only to find all you need is something to be enthusiastic about.:j

    An indirect flight to Chicago Midway MDW might be cheaper.

    Try adding one night in a hotel to see if the price falls.

    https://www.expedia.co.uk lets you do this.

    North West Airlines flies to Milwaukee and codeshares with KLM. There might be flights via AMS from Leeds LBA or Darlington MME.
