Always thought everyone just flew into New York and drove over.

Manchester NH isn't too far. There's also a very small one gate airport in Lebanon NH. The plane seats 9 and if there isn't a co pilot, you get to sit in the front!! 11/10.

Funny story:

I arrived in West Lebanon and they literally just shove your bags through a window in the side of the building, so you know pretty quick if your luggage didn't make the connection. Mine didn't so I asked the guy unloading the luggage if there was anything else cause mine wasn't there. In a very classic gruff New England style he kinda barked "you gotta talk to the guy at the front desk". So I went to the *only desk and waited.

I shit you not, a few moments later THE SAME GUY walked up to the counter, pulled off his hat, and said "now, how can I help you?"

I'm still laughing years later.

Yeah, but if you're flying into Albany might as well fly into Burlington :)

If you are trying to go to Burlington VT, Albany is a 3 hour drive!

Only to Burlington, not the rest of VT. And it involves crossing the border. Twice!

I live in burlington and yeah I usually fly out of bos or jfk to save money. 90% of the time flying out of burlington you just end up on a connector to jfk or boston.
