2021 Flight Prices MCI to MDW

Why are the flights so high from MCI to MDW???  I see that all the flight times are back (pre Covid) but really - it's an hour flight!

Supply and demand.  Fewer flights + more demand = higher prices.

I agree the pricing is high.  The other issue I don't like is how many of the flights are no longer non-stop.  Now I have to spend so many hours in the air I'm wondering if it's cheaper to drive.

That's  long drive.

 

I bet United and American can get you to O'Hare -- maybe Frontier or Spirit, too??

 

Southwest is my preferred airline, but if Southwest can't  do what i want, I have no problem flying someone else.
