We were planning on headed down to WDL this year but for the price I would pay for 2 weeks in Cali, I can go to FL for 3-4 weeks.....more vacation time is what I like ;)
I found a great deal flying out of Buffalo.....we always fly out of Pearson but I can't turn up the great deal.
Now would is my best bet for my car. Now I drive a very expensive car and I know nothing is totally secure but I would guess the actual airport lot would be my best bet. When we leave Pearson we always park at the main airport lot and never have had an issue. I would also guess any hotel in Buffalo would charge me for parking for 3-4 weeks, correct?
If anyone has any advise with flying out of BUF, parking and hotel there please let me know.
Thanks

If it were me and I was going to be away 3-4 weeks I'd

or leave the car in the airport parking. My family has left our car for a week in a Buffalo hotel ,however I'm not sure I'd feel comfortable leaving it for longer than a week.I believe the hotel one night stay covered our cost of car parking for the week. Sorry I can not remember the name of the hotel --it was right across the road from the BUF airport.
Hopefully others will chime in.
There is a sticky on BUF at the top of this page--lots of good info.

P.S. 3-4 Weeks sounds heavenly!!!!!:lovestruc:banana::cool1::thumbsup2

I would think that a Buffalo Hotel would possibly allow you 14 nights complimentary parking and perhaps offer a rate for the duration??
I have an expensive car too..I have left in the parking lot at the A/P for 10 days with no issues at all. They have a shuttle that scoots around the lots frequently. That being said NO WHERE is totally secure. But that's why we have insurance! Heck, my neighbours Escalade was taken from his own driveway in the middle of the day! :confused3

We were in Florida a month last Aug. We fly out of Seattle (can't beat the fares) so we drive down the night before and stay over night at either a Marriott Springhill Suites or Towne Place Suites not at the airport, but near. Hotel has airport shuttle, and lets you park for free, no time limit. I was surprised because I was gone so long, but no problem. They have security that patrols their parking lot too. I've never had a problem. I've stayed there several times.
The hotels and lots at the airport have a higher rate of theft.
