Chicago - January MR: Car pool to ORD?

I live in Hyde Park and am doing several MR flights from ORD in January. Many departures and arrivals are at normal enough hours to use bus+train combo, but the following departures are around 6:45AM and I was wondering if anyone wants to carpool to ORD:

1/6, 1/18, 1/23, 1/26, 1/31

I would aim to reach the terminal at 5:30AM.

If you are south of me you could pick me up, if north I could pick you up. I understand that on winter mornings with potential weather issues, this will work only if we don't have to drive out of the way, but I am curious to see if a few people are situated conveniently enough.

What time are you picking me up on the 18th? ;)

Kidding - I'm on the 9:00 to LAX that day. I'm thinking of doing one more MR in Jan. If I do, I'll let you know. I'm in the West Loop. I only have one early morning as I figured I would be taking the L and didn't want to be out in the cold that early on January mornings. I didn't even think of driving. Maybe I will now if the weather reports are good on those days.

I am at 6:45AM, so could pick you up at 4:30AM---probably not a very attractive offer. :)

Anyway, your name does not appear in the thread http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/communitybuzz/1292951-sfo-ord-lax-dfw-admirals-club-mr-dos-throughout-january.html. Look at the first post. Good for finding out who else will be on your flight(s). If you are an AC member, you could also offer to guest 1-2 FT'ers in the lounge.

As an EXP, you could also offer to guest 1-2 FT'ers in the lounge.

EXPs get lounge access on domestic flights? :confused:

Of course not, I was too sleepy. That was drowsy-English translation of "If you are an AC member"! (I have corrected my post above.)

PS. Re your signature "Join us on the One World Mega DO. You'll regret it if you don't." Considering the darn thing sold out in 15 minutes and most of us weren't able to get in, could you please stop rubbing salt in our wounds? :) Even the thread you link has been closed since October '11.

Thanks - I'm not sure how I missed that. :)

Done. In my defense, until recently there were ways to get a seat on the charter, either through various auctions and contests, or if you were on the original waitlist. :)
