A new shuttle service between O'Hare Airport in Chicago and New York is about to commence, with Delta Airlines announcing 11 daily flights from New York.

Delta Air Lines has added O'Hare to its shuttle operation from New York, which already takes in Boston and Washington.

From June 10th, Delta will be the only airline offering shuttle-style service from New York to all three business markets.

The flights for businesspeople will be on 76-seat Embraer 175 jets.

Up to now, Chicago O'Hare has been a stronghold for United and American Airlines.
