ORD Transit
I realize that this question does not belong in this forum, but because of my lack of knowledge about FT, I don't know where to put it, and I'm pretty sure it's so easy that it will get answered before a mod will move it.
I'm taking a UA flight from ORD tomorrow late afternoon. How much time would you budget to get from downtown (Clark/Lake) to O'Hare using the Blue Line CTA? Usually I know the trip is under an hour, but two friends have suggested that because of construction, I should expect at least 1.5 hours. Has anyone does this in the last couple days on a weekday afternoon that can give me a definitive answer?
Thanks so much, and again I apologize for breaking an FT rule.

Concur with your friends. The inbound blue line to Monroe took me at least 75 minutes last week, on a Tuesday at 11:00 a.m., with all the slow zone construction between O'Hare and the dip underground. Bring Xanax.
