Summer Travel to Cape Cod
What's The Cheapest Way to Get Here?
For summer travel to Cape Cod, all the options are open to you. Flying, driving, trains, buses, ferries ... So how does each mode of transportation compare price-wise? I did some price crunching to give you points of comparison for the different travel possibilities. I think you'll be surprised to see how a little "creative" travel planning might save you a lot of money. I know I was! FYI: My comparisons are based on average air fares, bus fares and gas prices at the time I wrote this page (March 2012).
