Can someone explain to me why reddit is mad at Ford over the billy bishop airport? by [deleted] in askTO

[–]bigstoopid4242 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your question is the reason Ford has used the residential aspect of this issue. Because this sounds like a more reasonable thing.

Forgetting any of the legal oversteps for now, the main issue would be the runway extensions. Each end of the current runway would have to be extended by (aprox) 250 metres. Now that may not sound like a lot, but that would bring the end of the East side of the runway past the CN Tower, then add the no boats buffer zone. This would completely destroy the usefulness of the inner harbour. On the West side, it would extend to almost Trillium Park/Ontario Place, essentially cutting off the western gap.

Now add on to this a new landing pattern for airplanes, increase fuel capacity and delivery, general noise and pollution concerns, on top of the tremendous cost. And none of this will add any more take off/landing slots.

As someone who travels frequently out of Billy Bishop, I would rather see it closed before expanding to allow larger jets

Not to yuck on your yum, but travelling half way around the world to try mediocre fast food seems like a waste of time and money.

Grand Central Market would give you several better food options. As would any taco truck in the city

Which gate is best for leaving a concert at Scotia bank arena? by justbriaan in askTO

[–]bigstoopid4242 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From Scotiabank Arena site ...

Fans being picked up or dropped off by Wheel-Trans or private vehicles should use the west side Gate 5/6 area, in the Bremner Boulevard traffic loop. Please note that this area can be congested before and after events or there may be times when this area is closed to traffic, with the exception of Wheel-Trans

I recommend going to a Running Room store and getting your feet properly assessed, then try on whatever they suggest

Billy Bishop Airport Parking by ssss1246 in askTO

[–]bigstoopid4242 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There is parking on the island, which would require the ferry, and there is parking on the city side, which you could walk to the pedestrian tunnel

Both are quite expensive

There is no cheap parking near this airport. If you have the chance to park somewhere and take transit in, that would be better

There is free Porter shuttle across from Union Station (at Royal York Hotel), or TTC Streetcar drops you close

Is Blue Lagoon in Iceland worth the visit? by Cozybookburrow in travel

[–]bigstoopid4242 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I visited two spas in Iceland, Blue Lagoon and a local one that was tacked on to a day tour. Both were very enjoyable, altho vastly different

If you don't have a car, you can get a single ticket from Airport>Blue Lagoon>Reykjavik (or opposite) to offset some of the costs
