To search for flights within this deal, head to TravelAgentMall and enter your departure city of choice and Chicago (ORD) in the “Where to?” box. Let’s start with this nonstop JetBlue flight out of JFK to ORD in early November for $137 round-trip.
Another extremely low fare in this deal is flying the almost 1,500 miles from Phoenix to Chicago on Nov. 1 and returning on Nov. 6, including this flight for less than $100 on United.
Once again, this route is for United’s basic economy fare, meaning it does not include a carry-on bag and a checked bag will run you $70. Upgrade to the economy for $167 total and get that free carry-on.
To avoid baggage fees altogether, let’s look at Southwest Airlines, which is the only U.S. carrier that continues to allow flyers two free carry-on bags, specifically one that fits below the seat, like a backpack or purse, and a larger one better suited for the overhead bins. If you plan on checking luggage, your first two are also free, so a slightly more expensive SWA fare might end up saving you more money in bag fees charged by other carriers. Because Southwest Airlines flights do not show up in Google Flights, note that you will have to look up SWA flights manually on TravelAgentMall. Chicago’s other airport, Midway (MDW), is a hub for SWA so you’ll likely find similarly priced flights as the ones included in the deal on other carriers.
For example, you could fly SWA from Miami (MIA) to MDW on Nov. 15 and return on Nov. 21 for just $49 each way, with flight selections outlined below.
