A.J. makes an excellent suggestion. Southwest Airlines has begun service between Baltimore-Washington International and Buffalo International. Tickets are about $100 round-trip. This would necessitate some other manuevering to get into Toronto, but is a lot cheaper than the alternative of flying directly there. Also . . . is it legal to take a car rented in Buffalo into Canada? - --Kate ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 19 Mar 2001 19:12:46 GMT From: "A.J.

Yes it is. With most rental companies anyway. There are a few, mostly smaller ones that stipulate that you can't take the car out of the state etc., but mostly it is fine. US insurance also covers Canada (unlike Mexico) so there is really no problem at all. A.J. - -- "Ann and I will carry out this equivocal message to the world: Markets must be open." - --G.W.

You're not allowed to. I'm not exactly sure why, but I know that when I flew into Detroit, and rented a car, I was told that I was not allowed to drive it into Toronto.

Try Hertz or Avis for cross-border car rentals; I've never encountered a problem with them. Enterprise doesn't like you leaving the immediate area you inhabit, because they specialize in local insurance-replacement rentals, and the individual offices don't like their fleets circulating to parts unknown much less whole other *countries*. (Which in part explains why on Friday afternoon we picked up one rental car from Avis and immediately returned another to Enterprise, but I digress.) Re: airlines, driving through Buffalo today we saw signs for a company called JetBlue that promises Buffalo-New York City flights for $49. If they fly into DC, making life convenient for Kate B., I imagine their rates on that route are equally competitive. Flights into Pearson, otoh, are generally expensive, but if Kate is looking several weeks in advance she might find a bargain rate. - -- Lori ~~~~~~~~~~ FruVan rides again! ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 20 Mar 2001 04:55:42 GMT From: "@*_*@ Chris K" Subject: Re: Toronto travel help?!

If you look on their web page, the prices range from $49-105 each way. > If they fly into DC, > making life convenient for Kate B., I imagine their rates > on that route are equally > competitive.

Southwest flies into Buffalo for around $112 round trip (depending on when you leave). I just did a random price search. I know someone also traveled via train to Toronto from Buffalo after flying into here. The train station is close to the airport and a cab costs around $10-15 to the train station. The bus station on the other hand is further away and could run around $25-30 to get there along with a round trip "student" ticket of $22 to toronto - depending if travel Trentway or Greyhound.[1] Speaking of getting cheap rates - did kate sign up for e-savers on all airlines? Christine. [1] Yeah I still use my student ID to get cheap bus tickets. ;) *^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^* "Ya know, with that long blonde hair, you'll be the first one in here that gets traded for cigarettes." *^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^* ------------------------------ End of alt.music.moxy-fruvous digest V5 #81 *******************************************
