Toronto Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport | ?m | ?s | Ports Toronto | Arup

Bunk. Not sure what I was expecting but YSN is amidst the vineyards of Niagara-on-the-Lake and I am not paying that taxi fare to get to my hotel. Wouldn't be bad if one is flying to get to St Kitts though. VIA sucks to get there and back with just one train a day so it looks like I'm stuck with the transfer to bus in Burlington. ><*
One of these days we'll have a real mass transport system in this country and by then I'll be eligible for seniors pricing so I suppose that's good.
 
FlyGTA! Forgot about them. I'm going to Niagara Falls in a couple of weeks, maybe I'll fly there. 12 minute flight, apparently. 99$. Beats the transfer to bus in Burlington with GO.
Why not just take a casino shuttle if you’re heading to the Falls? Usually ends up being cheaper and faster, and if you have a PAC then you can get it either free or under $10.
 
Oh hell no. I took it on a whim a month ago with a buddy and it was brutal...20$, to begin with and I hate long bus rides. I most definitely don't have a PAC....I'm not a pro gambler, I'm a 60$ limit gambler. My rent's too high and wage too stagnant to play around too much.
 
YTZ named one of North America’s best
On March 21, Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport was named one of North America’s best airports at the Skytrax World Airport Awards, which are voted on by air travellers in the largest annual global airport customer satisfaction survey.
Billy Bishop Airport was ranked the 10th best regional airport in North America, and also ranked the 10th best airport globally in the under five million passenger category.

With the ward redistribution and the filings to date, it looks likely that Kristyn Wong-Tam will have the airport in her bailiwick from the end of the year, as Joe Cressy has opted to run in the piece of his old ward north of Queen.
 
I'm amazed Wong Tam took ward 22, I expected her to take ward 25 to represent the gay village and yonge-bloor area - that was always more the core of her current ward.
 
Wimps. :D HKG operates during typhoons. I took off in a Cat 3 typhoon. Was strange looking straight ahead out of the planes window.

Yes - HKG 1999 China Airlines Flight 642:
