The cost/time saving of 1.5-2hours drive, each way to WLG, airport parking, flight return costs, etc<br /> 2. It could be just too much of a premium, that even with these cost/benefits taken in to account, an individual or business may dictate you have to fly “the cheapest option”.<br /> Good luck!</p> </div>
