It depends on the weather. Can be 14 hours, can be days.

Should you use the mailblocks package and expect a response from me,
you should preauthorize the dissensoftware.com domain.

I very rarely bother responding to challenge/response systems,
especially those from irresponsible companies.

:about 2 hours via plane regardless of season

While the time from take-off to landing will be in that range, the typical
passenger is more concerned about the time from scheduled departure until gate
arrival.

And, Virginia, during bad weather flights often take off later than scheduled.

By car at an average spped, not too fast, not too slow.


It's winter. One nice little snow storm and you can be stuck for days.


Cheers.

And without a storm it's a long day. Especially from western New York.

Depending on how long it takes you to get out of NY and at what time of
day, generally speaking approx. 12 to 14 hours. Could be less if there
was no traffic on the road


Many Thanks.

Does anybody know how long it takes on a train etc.

Cheers for the help!

Why take a train rather than flying?

You should be able to get a reasonable advance purchase fare.
