I'll just read you what the Buffalo airport says and what their value proposition is.
They have two elements on their website, “save time” and “save money”. Under "save time”, they have “The average peak wait time at Buffalo checkpoint is only 12 minutes. If you fly from Toronto Pearson you are instructed to arrive at the airport 3 hours before your flight.” That's not the case in Buffalo. “No additional airport stop for customs and immigration.” That's for U.S. destinations. They're positioning the choice. I sound like a commercial for them, and I'll stop here.
What they're saying is that, if you're flying transborder out of Pearson, you have to go to pre-clearance, etc., whereas all you have to do, if you're flying from Buffalo, is cross the border with your NEXUS card, and the infrastructure is there. Then you're in Buffalo free and clear, having your Chick-fil-A sandwich. They also say the Buffalo Niagara International Airport is mere miles from the Canadian border and QEW.
On the money side, they say the Buffalo airport is ranked 23rd in the U.S. for the most affordable airfares. The cost of parking is low. There are no international taxes or fees to fly to U.S. airports, because it ceases to be an international flight. These are some of the unique market dynamics we're saying we should take a look at, and they're felt here as much as anywhere else in the country.
