Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

The world's busiest airport has just become busier, with the introduction of Air India's twice-weekly flights between London and Chicago. Its Boeing 747-400s fly twice a week from Heathrow to O'Hare airport. A quick, cheap weekend in Chicago becomes possible, with a noon departure on Friday arriving at 2.30pm in Chicago and a 9.30pm flight back on Sunday night getting to London just after 11 on Monday morning.

Discount tickets are available for travel in June through Air India consolidators. Trailfinders (0171-937 5400) is offering a special of pounds 275 including tax; you can return after a weekend, a week or a year. Air India now offers free drinks in all classes, but if you want more legroom, the business class fare is pounds 792 through Welcome Travel (0171-439 3627). By the way, O'Hare - not Heathrow - is the world's busiest airport.
