Does everyone drive to Atlantic City?

I ran a search for atlantic city and read people are driving down.  Has anyone taken plane or train?  If my g/f had her license it would be an easy road trip.
Thanks.

    We drove down last year and are planning another trip in June. (renting a van instead of borrowing one this time...)

    When we researched the trip last time, we decided that it is WAY more cost-efficient to carpool down there than to fly or take a train. You're really not saving too much time either, given the length of time you have to wait at the airport for your flight...

    Note: that we drove down from Toronto... I don't know where you are, but if you're going from Calgary, I'd suggest not driving :)

    I don't know where you are

    Come ON... you have to know by now where every poster on PokerForum.ca who doesn't feel the need to say where he/she is actually is.

    Vegas.

    Hork, how much was it to fly?
  • Hork42Hork42
    I don't remember... This was over a year ago... At the time I was looking at Jetsgo because they had flights to NYC. But that's not an option anymore.

    AC doesn't have a major airport, so you're probably flying into New York or Philadelphia then taking a bus to AC.

    Greyhound bus is about $237.50 return. That's a bus to NYC and transfer to AC (15 hr trip) If you're going with a group, rent a van and drive. 10 hours direct.

    Heh thanks all.  Had my thought confirmed about airport checkin / transfer times.  I can't recall if the old forum skin had a location option.

    Toronto!

    Driving is also a lot easier with 6 people in the van. ;) Easy, that is, if the vehicle you're in doesn't toss a timing belt or die on the highway for no apparent reason. Hence, the rental. (I'm one of the group that's going with Hork42)

    My wife and I are going on vacation in a week to a resort in Pennsylvania - 3.5 hours each way from AC. We might check it out beforehand. She has seen the Borg on TV, and would like to see the place.

    flying in to newark, im pretty sure thats the closest major airport to atlantic city. and lock your doors if you're driving, lol. out side of the casino district AC has one of the highest crime rates in the US and poverty abound.
