exactly..
taxes from Buffalo airport: 35-70$
taxes from Pearson Airport: 150$+
absolutely insane if you ask me, although Toronto is just much more convenient and more convincing when I ask my mother to drive me there.. haha :p |

not just taxes, the base price itself is 30-60% lower as well (even with exchange) |

I shouldn't have completely agreed with you maybe..haha
yes the flights are cheaper going out of Buffalo, I will agree there.. but I think it also depends on your time frame and exactly how much you will be saving.
I know for me this month, flying out of Buffalo was 500$ cdn but there was no direct flight and they were all 15-17 hours in length due to one or two stopovers. I also would have had to worry about park n' fly and gas to get to Buffalo. Whereas I flew KLM out of Toronto for 750$ and it was a direct fight 6.5 hours and I didn't have to worry about my car or anything else. So for me saving 250$ didn't make a difference, my time is worth more than money.
I guess I will have to see how things look in the summer and hope that Buffalo has direct flights. I would never go anything that wasn't direct to Amsterdam. It just takes way too long otherwise. |

^ Not to mention the joys of going through American customs:mad:
In general flights have taken a steep increase this summer compared to last with many being an average of $150 more! |
