Victoria/Seattle Bound? Kenmore Means More Time
November 18, 2009 by Hedonista · 3 Comments
Just think of it – get from Seattle, WA’s Lake Union to Victoria, BC’s Inner Harbor – that’s “Inner Harbour” if you read/write/speak Canadian – in about the same time it takes to drive from downtown Seattle to the Eastside. (Less, even.)

The flight - whether heading north or south - offers breathtaking views of the San Juan and Gulf Islands.
We’re talking a mere 35 minutes here – give or take. All for the cost of about $100 US each way – again, give or take. (One-way rates are about $139; round-trips range from $198-$239; and a student standby rate – be sure to arrive at least one hour prior to departure – of only $69 each way!)
Interested? Then consider Kenmore Air the next time you take a trip to Victoria – which, by the way, with its increasingly edgy cultural evolution, is now any self-respecting-hipster-hedonist’s winter destination. In fact, Victoria’s former moniker,the “City of Roses” – still Portland, OR’s moniker, in fact – has now been changed to “Full of Life” to represent its growth as a small yet cosmopolitan city; a place where old world charm meets new world experiences. (But more on that in future articles, my dear readers).
This travel deal also goes for folks in Victoria wanting to get to Seattle’s Emerald City – where one will also find, among many other things, a veritable hedonistic haven. You can get there in about the same time it takes to get to the Cowichan Valley. (Less, even!)
The perks: Fast waterfront service either way, price in the very low three-figures.
The drawback: Flying is, of course, weather-permitting. Be prepared for flight cancellations if stormy skies are on the horizon (been there, done that).
In short, if you want lots more time in your destination city for just a little more money, go fly with Kenmore.
For, as the old adage goes, time is money.
So go fly on a float plane.
