Chicago-Related Airport Transportation Question

Does anyone know if Ziggy's Transportation service out of Hinsdale is still in business? The business is essentially a one man show operated by a guy named Nalzasnka Zbignaew. He is/was a private driver who gave rides for a flat rate from ORD to the south suburbs. I'm trying to plan an upcoming trip, and the old number I have for him is no longer in service.

Just taking a shot in the dark to see if anyone knows if he's still around.

Thanks in advance.

When I used to live in the burbs, I regularly used American Taxi. They have flat rates and are cheaper than using a city cab. This was in the pre uberlyft days though.

American Taxi is still a good option. They still have a fixed fare for most inter-suburban routes. I find that they arecheaper than Uber/Lyft/etc.

For the last few years, American Taxi has been charging $64. each way ORD <> Frankfort. Not had any real issues in +50 trips over last few years

That's not a bad deal for a 50 mile trip. They charge me around $25 for a 10 mile trip from Mount Prospect to ORD.
