From Seattle, United or USAirways will get you to Ithaca via Philadelphia. That's if you don't want to drive.

it would really suck flying into Philadelphia which is still 1.5hrs south of NYC. Probably about 8-9 hours from Ithaca driving.

Why would anyone want to go to the Ithaca campus anyway though... everything happens in NYC.

Main campus is Ithaca, only the medical school is in NYC.

Could also fly SEA-LGA-ITH, but it's a turboprop to Ithaca. PHL-ITH is a regional jet.[:(]

so i can fly into ithaca?


i was dreaming that maybe, since i was looking to get a new car, then i could fly to NYC or in the area, and then buy a car lol and drive to ithaca and then back home to seattle...

its a definite dream, but does anyone know if someone under 25 can rent a car?

thanks

peace
