Parnel: I invite you to VCE- let me tell you about a typical day there:
-Parking for frequent fliers is in a reserved lot 45 metres from the terminal
-You can check in for your flight in the lounge- which is far nicer than any MLL
-You have your own reserved security clearance with no line
-There are daily non-stop direct flights to New York, Philadelphia, Shanghai, and of course all the European centres
-92% of the flights are on-time
-Passport control is located directly before the gates- again, no queue
-Shopping includes Zegna, Prada, Gucci, and other mainline italian brands with street pricing
So...compare that to YYZ. No discussion. Period.
