Hello billbarilko,

Have you considered using the facilities at the Hilton attached to the airport? There are several gyms nearby, according to Google Maps. You might want to search on there to plot out the choices.

Having said that, since this question is not about AAdvantage or earning/burning miles, it has been relocated to the Chicago forum for additional input.

Your understanding is appreciated.

I'll echo support for the Hilton one (though I don't think it's technically part of the Hilton, as I've specifically had to ask for a pass when checking in at the hotel). Easily accessible underground (if you plan to shower at the AC after and want to just go back in your gym clothes) and it has a very wide array of equipment.

Depending on when your 3 hour layover is, you could meet a few of us for lunch. I've got a long-g-g layover & am meeting a couple FTers for lunch on Friday. I'll be at T1 United Club when I'm not doing lunch w/ the guys.

If it doesn't work w/ your timing, enjoy the work out!

Cheers.
