Dubuque Takes Flight: Terminal Updates, Plus Catch the Cubs with a BOGO Deal
Baseball season is heating up, and if you're a Chicago Cubs fan (or just love a good weekend getaway), Denver Air Connection (DAC) has a home run of a deal for you. The Dubuque Regional Airport is making it easier (and cheaper) than ever to catch a game at the iconic Wrigley Field thanks to a new DAC BOGO (buy one, get one) flight special from Dubuque to Chicago O’Hare.
Here’s the play-by-play. When the Cubs are playing at home, you can snag this deal by booking flights for two travelers. Depart from Dubuque on a Friday or Saturday, then return on Sunday or Monday. Just use promo code HOMERUN25 when booking your tickets on the DAC website.
Game series offered includes these dates for the BOGO:
- 5/30-6/2 vs. Reds
- 6/20-6/23 vs. Mariners
- 7/4-7/7 vs. Cardinals
- 7/18-7/21 vs. Red Sox
- 8/1-8/4 vs. Orioles
- 8/15-8/18 vs. Pirates
- 8/29-9/3 vs. Braves
- 9/5-9/8 vs. Nationals
- 9/12-9/15 vs. Rays
- 9/26-9/29 vs. Cardinals
The promotion runs through the end of September, giving you plenty of chances to make it to the ballpark.
Even better? The travel logistics just got a little smoother with Denver Air Connection. Right now, DAC flights in and out of O’Hare will use Gate G21 in Terminal 3. That's a more central spot that makes connections a breeze, especially if you’re flying American or United. There has also been a change in DAC’s Dubuque–O’Hare flight schedule. The updated times are:
- Dubuque to O’Hare: Departs at 7:50 AM, arrives at 8:45 AM
- O’Hare to Dubuque: Departs at 5:00 PM, arrives at 5:55 PM
So, whether you're a die-hard Cubs fan or just looking for a fun weekend in Chicago, this deal is a great excuse to pack a bag, grab a friend, and enjoy America’s favorite pastime. Just don’t forget the peanuts and Cracker Jacks!
