Hello all:
If you are arriving in Toronto on the 12th of August, you may be interested in catching a ride to Kingston with Vanessa and Nikki in the evening. Clean smelling sailors need only apply!

When are you getting here?
Dear competitors:
The Worlds are almost upon us, and we understand several of you are arriving in Toronto and need to figure out how to get to Kingston. If you contact me with your travel details, I will do my best to try and coordinate your transportation. Depending on your date of arrival, you may be able to catch a ride with a local sailor, or you can travel in larger groups to Kingston on a bus, train, car, etc.
I'm at stephanie.mah@gmail.com.
Safe travels!

Getting to Kingston - Planes, Trains and Automobiles
I've heard people say that it's the journey, not the destination, that is important. To them I say, "phooey". I'm sure you've all had your fill of lost luggage, delayed flights, rude co-passengers, and crummy airplane meals, and are looking to make the trip here as hassle-free as possible, and we're here to help.
Kingston is a small city about two hours East of Toronto, and there are flights between Toronto's International Airport (YYZ) and Kingston's airport (YGK). An alternative to flying straight to Kingston is to fly to Toronto and rent a car at the airport and drive (for most of you coming from across the Atlantic, keep in mind that we drive on the wrong side of the road). It's a pretty simple drive from the Toronto airport and Kingston - straight East on the 401.
Buses are another option - check Greyhound for times and prices. Going to Kingston by train is also possible, but it's pricey.
The best thing to do if you're really nervous about the trip is to get in touch with me or Neil with your arrival/departure dates. We'll do our best to lump travellers together (and if you're really lucky you can catch a ride with the Canadians who are making the trip to Kingston).
Cheap flights:
Kayak (they compile and compare results from all of the major discount flight websites - expedia, travelocity, and orbitz)
Flight Centre (check their international sites)
