    Descending into Midway is always an adventure. You practically kiss the rooftops of the houses in the adjacent neighborhoods, then the runway suddenly appears beneath you, then you have about 1.3 miles to make a full stop before the runway ends and you're out on 55th St....

      I’ve only flown into MDW twice, once in the dark, but I gotta say the approach is amazing!

      Washington Reagan is about the same. Always a hard breaking at that airport.

    Landing at Midway is always so much fun! My first time on a plane landed me at Midway, and I've always thought the intense landing was normal until I flew more often.
    It's always a treat going back and feeling the wild ride! It's a coster landing for sure!

    I've seen SWA planes fly that approach so many times from the ground (from downtown) so its cool to finally see it from the opposite perspective

    • @Southwest252
      @Southwest252  2 года назад

      It was a beautiful approach! I’ve also seen aircraft approaching MDW and ORD from the Willis Tower, and those views were spectacular!

      @@Southwest252 Oh yeah tell me about it! I feel like most things about the airport are fairly unique as well, such as the near monopoly Southwest has, and the short taxi times (which are AMAZING). Most times when you land you turn off the runway and you are basically already almost at your gate. Same in reverse with taxiing for takeoff.

    Is it just me or is it usually pretty bumpy/ windy when descending into Chicago midway if so why is that way 🤔

    • @Southwest252
      @Southwest252  Год назад +1

      It absolutely is bumpy a lot of the time coming into MDW. I don’t know why but I assume it’s something to do with Lake Michigan. I guess that’s why they call it the Windy City.

      You have got to be kidding me. Then why are you watching it? The video was excellent it was a great day and you could even see the skyline in the downtown before landing and a very crisp video.
