Gary Chicago (GYY) Airport Car Service

GYY (Gary Chicago International Airport, branded with the Chicago regional positioning despite its Gary, Indiana location to capture Chicago metro travelers) sits in Gary in Lake County, Indiana about 25 miles southeast of downtown Chicago, accessible via Interstate 90 (the Indiana Toll Road) and Industrial Highway. The airport is owned by the Gary Jet Center and operated under a public private partnership with the Gary Chicago International Airport Authority. Allegiant provides limited scheduled commercial service. GYY serves as a corporate charter and overflow gateway for Chicago metro travelers. Our chauffeurs stage at the commercial vehicle lane outside the terminal.

GYY to downtown Chicago and the Loop runs about 35 to 45 minutes via Interstate 90 westbound (the Chicago Skyway). We handle daily inter airport transfers and downtown Chicago hotel pickups for GYY arrivals capturing Allegiant fares or corporate charters that route through GYY to avoid MDW and ORD congestion.

GYY serves as a major corporate charter alternative to MDW and ORD for Chicago metro executives, with hangar facilities, FBO services from Gary Jet Center, and ramp space for business jets including Gulfstream G650, Bombardier Global Express, Dassault Falcon 7X, and Cessna Citation aircraft. The 8,859 foot main runway accommodates every category of business aviation including major sports team charter operations. We hold standing accounts with several charter operators.

Indiana Dunes peak summer season runs from Memorial Day through Labor Day, with July and August generating the heaviest weekend demand.

Dispatch runs around the clock with a live human on the line, and we operate red eye arrivals, 4 am US Steel Gary Works and ArcelorMittal early shift transfers, and late night Hard Rock Casino Gary guest pickups.
