I emailed the hotel and requested to book a seaplane for me to the hotel. But, if I land at the male airport, would someone wait for me and take me to the seaplane, or will I have to go straight there by myself? An…

Forfeiting money to travel elsewhere My wife and I booked tickets to go to DC/NYC in August. While we do have things planned, just the fact it is going to be hot and humid (10-21st), has made the trip less enticing.
