Funny you brought up RFD. That was the best deal in the world back in my old AA days. They had a bus that took you to ORD, amazing. 500 miles and points and I think a buck or two a day for parking. Before that they had ATR 72; I enjoyed the bus ride. They also were trying to drum up business there because the fares were always less than starting at ORD on its own merit.

Sorry for going OT; just brought back a great memory.
