Map of the trip from New York City to Toronto by bus. The line is squiggly, weaving through the terrain, with a significant detour through Syracuse, directly East of Toronto.

   My partner is spending a few days in Toronto, Canada for a work conference where she flew yesterday, and I was curious about the alternatives to flying between the 3rd largest American metropolis and the capital city of Ontario for a direct distance of 350 miles (560 km):

   • Plane: in 5h door-to-door for $140-$330 + $150-$200 taxi round-trips at both ends.
   • Car: 470 miles (750 km) (+34%) in about 8h40mn for $100-$150 fuel (no tolls included)
   • Bus: in 12h05mn for $40-$140
   • Train: in 12h27mn for $75-$130

   There's so much room for high speed rail improvement in this region.
