July 1, 2017 DuQuion…read moreto Chicago Union station. The DuQuion station is a small, unmanned, air conditioned depot in the middle of downtown DuQuion. Free, easy parking. There is no ticket station, so buy your ticket in advance. Not sure if you can purchase your ticket on the train. The conductors were not all that friendly and very little information was given during the, what ended up being a little over 6 hour ride. They don't check your baggage, but they did help me get my bag onboard. We had several delays due to freight trains, causing us to be over an hour late. The seats were comfortable and there's electrical outlets at every seat section. Overhead storage. My bag was placed in the car in front of me, so every time we stopped I was worried someone would just walk off the train with my bag. Needless to say, I got up and checked at each stop. The ride was really bumpy. Something I've not experienced inn previous train rides. The train really bounced a lot back and forth. My back was wrecked by the end of the trip. So no train ride is complete without checking out the dining car. I had to ask another passenger which way it was, as there was no information I could find onboard. Once I got to the dining car the cashier was less than friendly. I asked if I could order a hot dog ala carte and she said yes, then looked and said they were out of hot dogs. Sigh So I said let me think. She never smiled. She counted money while another person waited. She just said, what do you want? I'm like, I'll just wait.. thanks and walked away. Stopped at bathroom, and it was a mess. Urine all over the seat, toilet paper is practically on the floor, it's so low and the seat was angled in a way that just made it awkward to use the toilet. Finally at our arrival, an hour and 15 minutes late, I then realized my bag was in the other car and being the last stop, everyone was getting off. Ugh, I should have moved to the other car. I literally had to wait for every person to get off the train before i could get to the other car to get my bag. Only friendly gesture of the night was the young conductor taking my bag off the train and offering his hand to me while exciting the train. A long walk to get out of the terminal... I made it!

ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE! Do not fly with CONTOUR AIRLINES! I've flown with this airline twice, the…read morefirst time there was a maintenance delay, which resulted in us sitting in the airport for 10 HOURS! I missed my connecting flight and I had to buy a hotel room for the evening because there were no more flights available. After spending $500 booking a new flight and a hotel room, I called customer service to see if I could be reimbursed... long story short, no, I couldn't because I didn't book my connecting flight through them. Fast forward 2 weeks (Now), I have a flight home for Christmas through Contour airlines. I just received a text message stating that there's ANOTHER DELAY, which is causing the same issue all over again! SAVE YOUR TIME AND MONEY and just take the train. This airline is unreliable and you will be inconvenienced just like me.

TSA is super fast and they were very pleasant to talk too. They will measure your baggage and ask your weight for safety reasons. It's a tiny plane. Pretend like your have a private plane lol cuz it's super slow. I like how Veterans Airport of Southern Illinois honor veterans with artifacts. You need to make sure you are here by boarding time. There is ample parking space and it is free. Baggage: the connecting flight was different and somewhat difficult. If you are doing a connecting flight and can not get 2 hours between them it may be less of a hassle to bring a book bag only. I was closed to not making it but I did thankfully! I would recommend but be mindful. We had to take a shuttle and that took more time as well.

Holy cow, I am never flying out of Lambert again! This airport is SO easy to navigate. Parking is…read moreinexpensive and plentiful. There are only a couple of gates, so the security line moves very quickly and there's usually only 1 or 2 flights leaving around the same time, so there's like 100 people at the airport total! We flew out and back for the holidays and our stress level was next to nothing. (Which, if you know us, is like, amazing.) I'm from a small western city and am used to these smaller places that have only the basics and get the job done. Not every place needs to be Minneapolis. (IYKYK) But if you've never been to an airport like this, it might elicit a giggle or at least a smile because of its size. That said, it's updated and clean and bright. Plenty of stalls in the ladies room (go to the left! There's more stalls over there!) So easy, so clean and simple. I liked it a lot more than the hustle over at Lambert. Downsides: not much to eat or browse, but it's not nothing. There's a small magazine/snack/gum store. There's no Starbucks or other name-brands, but there is a nice little cafe and a good staff making hot breakfast sandwiches or grilled cheeses or lattes. But c'mon, if you're flying a discount airline are you really concerned about the brand of coffee? Anyway, 4 shiny stars.

I am such a fan of this airport and using Allegiant for flights! I find that flying through a…read moresmaller airport is way easier for me and creates less anxiety as an anxious flyer. Allegiant is a decent airline to fly though. Yes, you have to pay for everything, but it's no different from other airlines and whenever I do a cost comparison with other airlines, it always turns out to be cheaper, even if it's a few dollars. They have done a lot of constructions to the airport of the years and the terminals are just so much nice. The security line is usually quick and the TSA agents are actually quite friendly. Parking is super cheap if you have to leave your car there for a few days. The best part is that whenever I go to pick up or drop off people, I can park my car to walk inside with people and then leaving is usually free since they offer 3 hour or less parking for free! I love being able to greet my family or friends when they arrive in the baggage claim area and I think it's great to drop people off and say goodbye at the security line. Overall, this is always going to be my top choice for an airport/airline.
