Quote:Given that there are direct flights from YYZ to SFO, I think most people looking to make that trip to/from Waterloo Region are just going to YYZ.
I fly to the bay area on occasion, and usually end up with YKF-ORD-SJC rather than YYZ-SFO for a few reasons:
- Variability in the time it takes to get to YYZ on the 401, and the time to go through security and clear customs means that I have to leave long before the flight. I can be at the gate at YKF about 30 minutes after leaving downtown Kitchener.
- My destination is usually near San Jose, so there's extra Caltrain or rental car travel time upon arrival. Combined with the first point the door-to-door travel time is actually lower with the ORD stopover and the option to travel to SJC.
- We are a one car household so I can't drive to YYZ and park, and it's fairly expensive to take a taxi to and from YYZ.
