From MDW to MKE?
What the cheapest and easiest way to get from the MDW airport to the MKE airport? Are there trains? Shuttles? Educate me.

I can't guarantee these are the best or cheapestways but here are couple of options.
1.Flying. www.ATA.com flies from MDW-MKE every 2-3 hours. One way fare =$130
2.Trains. You would need to take CTA from MDW to Union Station. Orange Line - $1.75 (www.yourcta.com). There will be some walking involved between the closest downtown station and Union Station (about 2 city blocks). Amtrak has about 6-7 trains a day from Chicago to Milwaukee (www.amtrak.com). Cost = $20. I don't know what is the best way to get to the Milwaukee airport from the train station but this should give you some ideas: http://www.mitchellairport.com/getting.html
3.Rent a car. ~95 miles. check with your favorite provider for rates.
I don't know of any shuttles.
Hope this helps!

Another way is to take Omega Shuttle from MDW to ORD and Wisconsin Coach from ORD to MKE

The Wisconsin Coach shuttle runs from MDW too, Johnny. About 2 1/2 - 3 hours a trip.

About $33. Bus stops at ORD, Gurnee, IL, Kenosha, WI, Racine, WI, MKE, then downtown Milwaukee next to the Amtrak station.
