DH and I were just weighing the pros and cons regarding driving across the border to catch a flight.
We were wondering what it would cost to park our vehicle there for 2 weeks..and would it be there when we got back? :rolleyes:
I've priced a rental car which would be 129 CND down and the same coming back (central NS to BOS and return).
Because it's DH,myself and our 3 DD's we'd still be saving a lot of money.
Any thoughts?

We live in Ontario and drove to Buffalo to fly to our last/first WDW trip. Our car was fine....we were gone for 10 days. Check into the hotel and if their parking lot has security. Good luck

Leaving your car at a Park n' Fly or at a hotel is perfectly safe and a lot cheaper than renting one to cross the border! :)

Hi, for 2 wks total for parking at Buffalo airport it cost us $96.42 US. Next time we might as well just rent a hotel room and leave it at the hotel for that price. :rolleyes:

PARKING AT LOGAN (Boston ) IS $ 96.00 A WEEK
Parking At Manchester is $ 56.00 a week
Parking at Portsmouth NH is Free
I also found Days Inn Saugus Logan Airport that has a park and fly program for aprox $ 90 cdn
I would Drive your car and use the park and fly and get a early morning flight and a afternoon flight on your return to max your time south
Hope this helps
I may do the same my self next feb or i may drive all the way

We just returned today from 2 weeks in Florida. We rented a van from Alamo here because we could take it over the border. Many rental companies will not let you do this. Check first if you choose this option.
We have parked our car for 2 weeks at the HI Express and it was fine! I would not worry about parking at the airport or a local hotel!
